Answer to Question #187442 in Mechanical Engineering for randz

Question

6. A 0.09 m 3 drum contains saturated liquid-vapor mixture at 280 O C. Find the mass of each

phase if their volumes are equal and what is the percent quality of the mixture.

Answer 1

at $T = 280^0C$

$V_f = 0.001332 \frac {m^3}{kg}$ and $V_{fg} =0.03017 \frac{m^3}{kg}$ From Steam table

$V =0.09 m^3$

$x =\frac{V_f} {V_fg}$

$x =\frac{0.03017} {0.09} =0.3352 = 33.52$ %
