1. Steam is flowing through an adiabatic throttling valve. Steam enters point 1 upstream of the valve at 99.931 psia and 339.98°F and leaves the valve (point 2) at 52.0687 psia. Calculate the temperature $T_2$ in Celcius at the outlet.

Step 1
To convert psia to absolute pressure in Pa, we need to multiply the psia value by 6894.76 (1 psia = 6894.76 Pa). So, the absolute pressure at point 1 is: P1 = 99.931 psia * 6894.76 Pa/psia = 689,235.6 Pa Show more…

Steam is flowing through an adiabatic throttling valve (no heat loss or external work). Steam enters point 1 upstream of the valve at 675 kPa and 162.5oC and leaves the valve (point 2) at 345 kPa. Calculate the temperature at the outlet. Use SI units. Show solution with units cancellation using energy balance equation.

Steam $\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \text { vapor }\right)$ flows in a pipeline in a power station. The steam pressure is 150 psia, its temperature is $500^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$, and it flows with velocity $750 \mathrm{ft}$ /s. Calculate the stagnation pressure and stagnation temperature. If you are familiar with Steam Tables or steam property software, use these tools to make an "exact" calculation. If you are not familiar with these tools, model the steam as an ideal gas with molecular weight of 18 and $k=1.3$.
The following data was given for a steam power plant operating on the ideal reheat Rankine cycle. 3-4: Inlet steam at 17.5 MPa and 600 ˚C 6-1: inlet steam at a pressure of 11.16 kPa at a wetness fraction of 0.1. At state 1, the specific volume is 0.00101 m3/kg Find the temperature in degree C at state 4 to 2 deciamal places.
