Superheated water vapor at a pressure of 20 MPa, a temperature of 500oC, and a flow rate of 10 kg/s is to be brought to a saturated vapor state at 10 MPa in an open feedwater heater. This process is accomplished by mixing this stream with a stream of liquid water at 20oC and 10 MPa. What flow rate is needed for the liquid stream?

1.96 kg/s.

Explanation:

So, we are given the following data or parameters or information which we are going to use in solving this question effectively and these data are;

=> Superheated water vapor at a pressure = 20 MPa,

=> temperature = 500°C,

=> " flow rate of 10 kg/s is to be brought to a saturated vapor state at 10 MPa in an open feedwater heater."

=> "mixing this stream with a stream of liquid water at 20°C and 10 MPa."

K1 = 3241.18, k2 = 93.28 and 2725.47.

Therefore, m1 + m2= m3.

10(3241.18) + m2 (93.28) = (10 + m3) 2725.47.

=> 1.96 kg/s.

the warning light flashes for a second or two when the engine starts. if it stays on, there's must be something wrong with the coolant. you should never dare to continue driving when the light is on. pull over as soon as possible and shut the engine off.

hope this is what you're talking about
