ABSTRACT

In Chapter 9 we used the steam tables in Appendix A to solve problems involving lowpressure water vapor which is mixed with dry air. In this chapter we will continue to use the steam tables to determine thermodynamic properties of saturated liquid, compressed liquid, saturated vapor, mixtures of saturated vapor and saturated liquid, and superheated vapor. The quantities will be used to determine energy transfers in turbines, condensers, boilers, feedwater heaters, pumps and other equipment found in modern power plants.
