Tutorial 1 - Use of Steam Tables

1. At a pressure of 10 bar, find the saturation temperature, and the specific enthalpy of saturated
liquid and saturated vapor.

2. At a temperature of 150°C, determine the saturation pressure, saturation specific entropy and
saturation specific volume.

3. Steam at 180°C has an enthalpy of 2650 kJ/kg. Find the state of the substance.

4. Find the enthalpy and entropy of steam at 5 bar and 300°C.

5. Steam at 1 MPa has a dryness fraction of 0.85. Calculate the specific volume of the steam mixture.

6. Steam is at 200°C and 1 MPa. Find the state of the substance.

7. At 15 bar, calculate the enthalpy of evaporation. What is the enthalpy of saturated liquid and
vapor?

8. Assume water is at 80°C and 2 MPa. Estimate the enthalpy and compare it with hf at 80°C.

9. Steam is throttled from 6 MPa and 250°C to 1 bar. Find the final enthalpy and dryness fraction at
the outlet using the concept that enthalpy remains constant.

10. Steam enters a turbine at 3 MPa and 350°C and expands isentropically to 0.1 MPa. Find the work
output per kg of steam using steam tables.

11. Steam enters a turbine at 6 MPa and 500°C and expands isentropically to 0.1 MPa. Determine: (a)
Work output per kg of steam, (b) Final dryness fraction (x) of the steam.

12. Steam from a boiler enters a throttling calorimeter at 2 MPa and expands to 0.1 MPa. After
throttling, its temperature is measured as 120°C. Find the dryness fraction of the steam entering the
calorimeter. Assumption: Enthalpy is constant across throttling.

13. A natural geyser ejects water-steam mixture at 100°C and atmospheric pressure (1 bar). The
mixture is found to contain 90% water by mass and 10% steam. What is the dryness fraction (x)?
What is the specific enthalpy of the mixture? How much heat input (in kJ) is required to convert 1 kg
of saturated liquid at 100°C to this state?

14. Water is boiling in a pressure cooker at 1.8 bar. What is the boiling temperature inside the
cooker? What is the latent heat of vaporization at this pressure? If 500 g of water evaporates inside
the cooker, how much energy is absorbed?

15. Calculate enthalpy and entropy of 10kg of steam at 100C when dryness fraction is 0.8.
