A stream of high pressure saturated liquid water at 100 bar and a flow rate of 5 kg/s enters an insulated pipe (D=10-inch) and passes through an insulated valve, which reduces its pressure to 10 bar and vaporizes a fraction of the liquid in this throttling process. Determine: a. The properties of the feed stream.
b. The specific enthalpy of the exit stream.
c. The temperature of the exit stream.
d. The fraction of vapor in the exit stream.
e. The specific volume of the exit stream.
