Phase change in Pure Substances and Vapour Cycles (steam)
Q1. Determine the phase or phases in a system consisting of water at the following conditions
and sketch p-v or T-v diagrams showing the location of each state with respect to the saturation
lines. (a) 5 bar, 151.9 °C (b) 5 bar, 200 °C (c) 2.5 MPa, 200 °C (d) 4.8 bar, 160 °C.

Solution:

The above mentioned states can be classified into three categories. The first is sub-cooled liquid,
the second is saturated vapour and liquid state, and the final is superheated steam state. Using the
steam tables these information can be obtained.

a.) T=151.9 °C, P=5 bar – It can be observed in the steam tables that this pressure and
temperature lie in the region of saturated liquid and vapour state. The exact location of the
state is unknown as it lies on the horizontal line shown in the Fig. 1.1. Look for state ‘1’ in the P-
v and T-S diagram in the Fig. 1.1. To know the exact location of the state the volume has to be
specified.

b.) T=200 °C, P=5 bar - As the temperature in this case is more than that of option ‘a’ with the
same pressure as option ‘a’ the state lies in the superheated steam regime. Look for state ‘2’ in
the P-v and T-S diagram in the Fig. 1.1.

c.) T=200 °C, P=25 bar - As the saturated pressure for the temperature of 200 °C is 15.54 bar
and the corresponding pressure is more than this the state lies in sub-cooled or compressed
liquid region. Look for state ‘3’ in the P-v and T-S diagram in the Fig. 1.1.

d.) T=160 °C, P=4.8 bar - As the saturated pressure for the temperature of 160 °C is 6.187 bar
and the corresponding pressure is less than this the state lies in superheated steam regime.
Look for state ‘4’ in the P-v and T-S diagram in the Fig. 1.1.
Figure 1.1
Q2. Using steam tables, determine the specified property data from each of the folowing states.
Show the location of each state with respect to the saturation lines. (a) 3 bar, 240 °C, find ‘v’and
‘u’; (b) 3 bar, 0.3 m3/kg, find T and ‘u’; (c) 10 bar, 400 °C find ‘v’ and ‘h’; (d) 320 °C, 0.026
m3/kg find ‘p’ and ‘u’.

Solution

(a) 𝑝 = 3 bar, 𝑇 = 240 °C

𝑇𝑠𝑎𝑡 @ 3 bar = 133.6 °C. Therefore the given state is superheated.
Use the superheated table for 𝑝 = 3 bar. Perform a linear interpolation between the values
provided in the table to obtain 𝑣 = 0.78 m3/kg and 𝑢 = 2713.4 kJ/kg.

(b) 𝑝 = 3 bar, 𝑣 = 0.3 m3/kg

𝑣𝑓 @ 3 bar = 0.001073 m3/kg and 𝑣𝑔 @ 3 bar = 0.606 m3/kg. The given 𝑣 satisfies 𝑣𝑓 < 𝑣 <
𝑣𝑔 . Therefore the state is saturated (water steam mixture).
We can find 𝑇 = 133.6 °C (Boiling point at 3 bar).
The dryness factor 𝑥 = (𝑣 − 𝑣𝑓 )⁄(𝑣𝑔 − 𝑣𝑓 ) = 0.4941
Thus, 𝑢 = 𝑥𝑢𝑔 + (1 − 𝑥)𝑢𝑓 = 1540.77 kJ/kg.

(c) 𝑝 = 10 bar, 𝑇 = 400 °C

𝑇𝑠𝑎𝑡 @ 10 bar = 179.9 °C. Therefore the given state is superheated.
Using the superheated table for 𝑝 = 10 bar, we can obtain 𝑣 = 0.307 m3/kg and ℎ = 3264
kJ/kg.

(d) 𝑇 = 320 °C, 𝑣 = 0.026 m3/kg

𝑣𝑔 @ 320 °C = 0.015 m3/kg. We can see that 𝑣 > 𝑣𝑔 . Therefore, the state is superheated.
We know that 𝑝 must be lower than 𝑝𝑠𝑎𝑡 @ 320 °C. In the superheated tables, check for the value
of 𝑝 where 𝑇 = 320 °C and 𝑣 = 0.026 m3/kg. We can find that 𝑝 = 80 bar fits this condition.
By interpolation, we can find 𝑢 = 2645.6 kJ/kg.
Q3. A system consisting of 1 kg of steam/water substance at 150°C is contained in a frictionless
piston-cylinder mechanism. From an initial volume of 0.35 m3, the steam is compressed slowly
until the volume has been reduced to 10% of the initial volume. During the process heat transfer
occurs at such a rate as to keep the temperature constant at 150 °C. Indicate the initial and final
states and the compression process on a p-v diagram clearly, showing the saturation lines.
Calculate the work and the heat interactions for the system.

Solution

Given the mass of the water/steam system (m) is 1 kg. The temperature (T1) is 150 °C. The
substance is in saturated liquid-vapour region.

As the substance is contained in a piston cylinder arrangement, the pressure in the container will
be constant throughout any process undergone by the system.

The initial volume of the water/steam system is (V1) is 0.35 m3. The system is compressed
slowly to the 10% of its volume. So final volume of the system is (V2) is 0.035 m3. The system is
compressed slowly suggests that the process is a reversible process. Look at Fig 1.2

The initial and final specific volume can be calculated by dividing the volume with mass of the
system which is 1 kg.

𝑚3
𝑣1 = 0.35
𝑘𝑔

𝑚3
𝑣2 = 0.035
𝑘𝑔

Looking at the steam table, the above initial and final specific volume lies in the saturated liquid-
vapour regime with saturated vapour specific volume (𝑣𝑔 ) of 0.393 m3/kg and saturated liquid
specific volume (𝑣𝑓 ) of 0.001091 m3/kg

𝑚3
𝑣𝑔 = 0.393
𝑘𝑔

𝑚3
𝑣𝑓 = 0.001091
𝑘𝑔

So, from the above information the pressure and temperature for this compression process
remains constant as the both initial and final states lie on the saturated liquid-vapour region.
The dryness factor (x) for both the states can be calculated using the volume of the state (𝑣1 or
𝑣2 ) and the corresponding saturated liquid and vapour specific volume (𝑣𝑓 , 𝑣𝑔 )

The dryness factor (x) for both the states are calculated below:

(𝑣1 − 𝑣𝑓 ) 0.35 − 0.001091

𝑥1 = = = 0.89
(𝑣𝑔 − 𝑣𝑓 ) 0.393 − 0.001091

(𝑣2 − 𝑣𝑓 ) 0.035 − 0.001091

𝑥2 = = = 0.086
(𝑣𝑔 − 𝑣𝑓 ) 0.393 − 0.001091

As this is a constant pressure process, the heat transfer to the system in the above process is
equal to the change in enthalpy of the system. This statement can be proved using first law of
thermodynamics as follows:

𝛿𝑄 = ∆𝑈 + 𝛿𝑊 = 𝐶𝑣 ∆𝑇 + 𝑃𝑑𝑣 = 𝐶𝑣 ∆𝑇 + 𝑅𝑔𝑎𝑠 ∆𝑇 = 𝐶𝑃 𝑔𝑎𝑠 ∆𝑇 = ∆𝐻 (𝑢𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑠 − 𝐽/𝑘𝑔) [3.1]

Using the dryness factor (x) the corresponding enthalpy (H) and internal energy (U) of the
system at initial and final state can be calculated.

𝑢2 = 𝑢𝑓 + 𝑥2 ∗ (𝑢𝑔 − 𝑢𝑓 ) = 631.7 + 0.086 ∗ (2559 − 631.7) = 797.44

The saturated pressure value which remains constant throughout the process obtained from the
steam table is 4.758 bar

𝑇 = 150 ℃

𝑃 = 4.758 ∗ 105 𝑃𝑎

So, work done can be calculated as follows:

0.035
𝛿𝑊 = 𝑚 ∗ ∫ 𝑃𝑑𝑣 = 𝑚 ∗ 𝑃(𝑣2 − 𝑣1 ) = 1 ∗ 4.758 ∗ 105 ∗ (0.035 − 0.35) = −𝟏𝟒𝟗. 𝟖𝟕𝟕 𝒌𝑱

The change in internal energy can be calculated as follows:

∆𝑈 = 𝑚 ∗ (𝑢2 − 𝑢1 ) = 1 ∗ (797.44 − 2346.98) = −𝟏𝟓𝟒𝟗. 𝟓𝟒 𝒌𝑱

The heat transfer to the system can be calculated as follows:

𝛿𝑄 = ∆𝐻 = 𝑚 ∗ (ℎ2 − ℎ1 ) = 1 ∗ (813.987 − 2513.482) = −𝟏𝟔𝟗𝟗. 𝟒𝟗𝟓 𝒌𝑱

The above answer for heat transfer to the system can also be found by adding work done and
internal energy change calculated in the above part.

Q4. 1 kg of water at 0.2 MPa is initially enclosed within a volume of 0.10 m3 in a piston-cylinder
arrangement. The piston initially rests on stops and will move when the pressure is 1.0 MPa.
During a certain process, an amount heat equal to 2500 kJ is transferred to the water. Determine
the work done and the final state of the water.

Solution

𝑚 = 1 kg, 𝑃1 = 0.2 MPa, 𝑉1 = 0.1 m3 and 𝑄 = 2500 kJ. We can find 𝑣1 = 0.1 m3/kg.
The piston does not move until the pressure reaches 𝑃2 = 1 MPa. Thus, the volume remains
constant during this process i.e., 𝑣2 = 0.1 m3/kg. We can notice that state 1 is a saturated liquid
vapor mixture since 𝑣1𝑓 < 𝑣1 < 𝑣1𝑔 corresponding to 𝑃1 = 0.2 MPa. The dryness factor 𝑥1 =
(𝑣1 − 𝑣1𝑓 )⁄(𝑣1𝑔 − 𝑣1𝑓 ) = 0.1118. Thus, the specific internal energy corresponding to state 1 is
given by 𝑢1 = 𝑥1 𝑢1𝑔 + (1 − 𝑥1 )𝑢1𝑓 = 730.95 kJ/kg. For state 2, we can find that it is saturated
since 𝑣2𝑓 < 𝑣2 < 𝑣2𝑔 corresponding to 𝑃2 = 1 MPa. The dryness factor 𝑥2 =
(𝑣2 − 𝑣2𝑓 )⁄(𝑣2𝑔 − 𝑣2𝑓 ) = 0.513. Thus, the specific internal energy corresponding to state 2 is
given by 𝑢2 = 𝑥2 𝑢2𝑔 + (1 − 𝑥2 )𝑢2𝑓 = 1696.54 kJ/kg. For the process 1-2 (isochoric), the first
law becomes 𝑞1−2 = ∆𝑢1−2 = 𝑢2 − 𝑢1 = 965.59 kJ/kg, where 𝑞 is heat supplied per kg.
Once 𝑃2 = 1 MPa is reached, the remaining heat added (𝑞 − 𝑞1−2 = 1534.41 kJ/kg) is used to
lift the piston and take the system to state 3. Thus 𝑞2−3 = 𝑞 − 𝑞1−2 and the process 2-3 is
isobaric (𝑃3 = 𝑃2 = 1 MPa).
Therefore, from first law, 𝑞2−3 = ∆ℎ2−3 = ℎ3 − ℎ2 = 1534.41 kJ/kg. We can find ℎ2 =
𝑥2 ℎ2𝑔 + (1 − 𝑥2 )ℎ2𝑓 = 1796.6 kJ/kg. Thus, we can evaluate ℎ3 = 3331 kJ/kg. The state 3 is
superheated since ℎ3 > ℎ𝑔 @ 1 MPa. Use the superheated table for 1 MPa and interpolate
linearly to find 𝑣3 = 0.322 m3/kg.
Work done by the gas during the process 𝑊 = 𝑚𝑃3 (𝑣3 − 𝑣2 ) = 222 kJ.
Q5. Saturated steam-water mixture of 0.6125 kg mass at 150 kPa, 0.6 m3 is enclosed in a piston
cylinder arrangement. Calculate the work interaction and the change in internal energy for this
system for the following cases: (a) The mixture is heated at constant pressure until its
temperature becomes 200 °C, (b) The mixture follows pV= constant until it becomes a saturated
vapour; (c) The pressure increases linearly with volume until final pressure is 200 kPa and
temperature is 250 °C.

Solution

a.)

Given the mass of the water/steam system (m) is 0.6125 kg. The initial pressure (P1) is 150 kPa
or 1.5 bar. The substance is in saturated liquid-vapour region.

The substance is contained in a piston cylinder arrangement and the initial volume of the
container (V1) is 0.6 m3.

The initial specific volume can be calculated by dividing the volume with mass of the system
which is 0.6125 kg.

0.6 𝑚3
𝑣1 = = 0.9796
0.6125 𝑘𝑔

Looking at the steam table, the above initial specific volume lies in the saturated liquid-vapour
regime with saturated vapour specific volume (𝑣𝑔 ) of 1.159 m3/kg and saturated liquid specific
volume (𝑣𝑓 ) of 0.001053 m3/kg

𝑚3
𝑣𝑔 = 1.159
𝑘𝑔

𝑚3
𝑣𝑓 = 0.001053
𝑘𝑔

The temperature of the initial state (T1) which is the saturated temperature for the given pressure
1.5 bar is 111 °C.

As, it is mentioned in the question that the mixture is heated at constant pressure upto a
temperature of 200 °C which is greater than the saturated temperature of 111 °C. So the final
state lies on the superheated steam regime.

The dryness factor (x) for the initial state is as follows:

 (𝑣1 − 𝑣𝑓 ) 0.9796 − 0.001053
𝑥1 = = = 0.8451
(𝑣𝑔 − 𝑣𝑓 ) 1.159 − 0.001053

Using the dryness factor (x) the corresponding enthalpy (H) and internal energy (U) of the
system at initial state can be calculated.

Using the above enthalpy and internal energy of the saturated liquid and vapour state, the
enthalpy and internal energy (U) of the system at initial state is calculated below.

𝑘𝐽
ℎ1 = ℎ𝑓 + 𝑥1 ∗ (ℎ𝑔 − ℎ𝑓 ) = 467.1 + 0.8451 ∗ (2694 − 467.1) = 2349.05
𝑘𝑔

𝑘𝐽
𝑢1 = 𝑢𝑓 + 𝑥1 ∗ (𝑢𝑔 − 𝑢𝑓 ) = 466.9 + 0.8451 ∗ (2520 − 466.9) = 2201.97
𝑘𝑔

The final pressure and temperature of the system is as follows:

𝑇2 = 200 ℃

𝑃2 = 𝑃1 = 1.5 ∗ 105 𝑃𝑎

Looking in the superheated steam table for the pressure of 1.5 bar the following properties at the
final state is obtained.

𝑣2 = 1.626

So, work done can be calculated as follows:

∆𝑈 = 𝑚 ∗ (𝑢2 − 𝑢1 ) = 0.6125 ∗ (2656 − 2201.97) = 𝟐𝟕𝟖. 𝟎𝟗 𝒌𝑱

The heat transfer to the system can be calculated as follows:

𝛿𝑄 = ∆𝐻 = 𝑚 ∗ (ℎ2 − ℎ1 ) = 0.6125 ∗ (2873 − 2349.05) = 𝟑𝟑𝟕. 𝟒𝟕𝟖 𝒌𝑱

The above answer for heat transfer to the system can also be found by adding work done and
internal energy change calculated in the above part.

b.)

In this process the product of pressure and the temperature is constant. It is mentioned in the
question that the final volume of the state is in saturated vapour point. As the initial volume is in
the saturated liquid-vapour regime, the final volume will be more than the initial volume. So the
final pressure will be less than the initial pressure.

Calculating the product of pressure and the saturated vapour specific volume matching the initial
product of pressure and specific volume the final state is obtained.

𝑃1 ∗ 𝑣1 = 1.5 ∗ 105 ∗ 0.9796 ∗= 146940 = 0.1 ∗ 105 ∗ 14.68 = 𝑃2 ∗ 𝑣𝑔 = 𝐶

Where C is a constant.

So the final pressure is 0.1 bar and specific volume is 14.68 m3/kg.

𝑃2 = 0.1 ∗ 105 𝑃𝑎

𝑣2 = 14.68

The heat transfer to the system can be calculated as follows:

𝛿𝑄 = ∆𝑈 + 𝛿𝑊 = 𝟑𝟖𝟕. 𝟗𝟔𝟖 𝒌𝑱

c.)

In this case the pressure increases linearly with volume. The final pressure and temperature is
200 kPa and 250 °C.

𝑃2 = 2 ∗ 105 𝑃𝑎

𝑇2 = 250 °C

By looking at the steam table it can be inferred that the above final state lie in the superheated
steam regime. The specific volume and the internal energy is as follows:

Q6. Steam at 20 bar, 360°C is expanded in a steam turbine to 0.08 bar. It then enters a
condenser, where it is condensed to saturated liquid water. The pump feeds back the water into
the boiler. (a) Assuming ideal processes, find net work per kg of steam and the cycle efficiency.
(b) If the turbine and the pump each have 80% efficiency, find the percentage reduction in the
net work and cycle efficiency.

Solution

Given 𝑇1 = 360°C and 𝑃1 = 20 bar.

Figure 6.1

(a) Using the steam tables, we can find that 𝑇1 > 𝑇𝑠𝑎𝑡 @ 20 bar. Thus state 1 is superheated
steam. Then, ℎ1 = 3159.3 kJ/kg and 𝑠1 = 6.9917 kJ/ kg. K. The steam undergoes an isentropic
expansion to 𝑃2 = 0.08 bar. 𝑠2𝑠 = 𝑠1 = 6.9917 kJ/ kg. K. For state 2, at 𝑃2 = 0.08 bar, 𝑠2𝑓 <
𝑠2𝑠 < 𝑠2𝑔 . Therefore, state 2 is saturated liquid vapor mixture. We can calculate the dryness
factor 𝑥2𝑠 = (𝑠2 − 𝑠2𝑓 )⁄(𝑠2𝑔 − 𝑠2𝑓 ) = 0.838. Thus, ℎ2𝑠 = 𝑥2𝑠 ℎ2𝑔 + (1 − 𝑥2𝑠 )ℎ2𝑓 = 2187.68
kJ/kg. Use the first law for a control volume to calculate the work done. Since the process is
adiabatic, work extracted by turbine 𝑊𝑇𝑠 = ℎ1 − ℎ2𝑠 = 971.62 kJ/kg.

The condenser takes the system to state 3 (saturated liquid) where 𝑠3 = 𝑠2𝑓 , ℎ3 = ℎ2𝑓 and 𝑃3 =
𝑃2 = 0.08 bar. Then, the pump increases the pressure from 𝑃3 = 0.08 bar to 𝑃4 = 20 bar.
During this process, water is in its liquid state. Therefore, the specific volume is almost a
constant i.e., 𝑣4𝑠 = 𝑣3 = 𝑣𝑔 @ 0.08 bar. Using the first law 𝑊𝑃𝑠 = ℎ4𝑠 − ℎ3 = 𝑣3 (𝑃4 − 𝑃3 ) =
2.008 kJ/kg.
Net work output 𝑊𝑠,𝑛𝑒𝑡 = 𝑊𝑇𝑠 − 𝑊𝑃𝑠 = 969.612 kJ/kg.
Heat supplied to the system, 𝑄𝐻 = ℎ1 − ℎ4𝑠 = 2983.41 kJ/kg.
Thus, efficiency 𝜂 = 𝑊𝑠,𝑛𝑒𝑡 ⁄𝑄𝐻 = 0.325

(b) If 𝜂𝑃 = 0.8 and 𝜂𝑇 = 0.8,

𝑊𝑃 = 𝑊𝑃𝑠 ⁄0.8 = 2.51 kJ/kg and 𝑊𝑇 = 0.8 × 𝑊𝑇𝑠 = 777.3 kJ/kg.
Therefore 𝑊𝑛𝑒𝑡 = 𝑊𝑇 − 𝑊𝑃 = 774.8 kJ/kg.

Percentage reduction in work output = × 100 = 20.1%
𝑊𝑠,𝑛𝑒𝑡
𝑊𝑃 = ℎ4 − ℎ3 , where ℎ3 = ℎ4𝑠 − 𝑊𝑃𝑠 .
Therefore, ℎ4 = 𝑊𝑃 − ℎ3 = 176.39 kJ/kg.
Now, 𝑄𝐻 ′ = ℎ1 − ℎ4 = 2982.91 kJ/kg.
Efficiency 𝜂′ = 𝑊𝑛𝑒𝑡 ⁄𝑄𝐻 ′ = 0.2597

Percentage reduction in efficiency = × 100 = 20.1%
