Question

Water at 1.5 MPa, 150°C, is throttled adiabatically through a valve to 200 kPa. The inlet velocity is 5 m/s, and the inlet and exit pipe diameters are the same. Determine the state (neglecting kinetic energy in the energy equation) and the velocity of the water at the exit.

Answer 1

Now neglect the kinetic energy terms (relatively small) from table B.1.1 we have the compressed liquid approximated with saturated liquid same T
