Answer to Question #320198 in Molecular Physics | Thermodynamics for matilda

Question

1 kg of steam at 7 bar, entropy 6.5 kJ/kg K, is heated reversibly at constant pressure until the temperature is 250℃. Calculate the heat supplied.

Answer 1

$S_1=S_f+x*S_{fg}$

6.5=1.99190+x*4.71529

x=0.95606

$H_1=H_f+x*H_{fg}$

696.49+0.95606*2065.75=2671.47 (KJ/kg)\

$Q=H_2-H_1$

2953.51-2671.47=282.04 (KJ/kg)
