C. Discussions
For example, in Fig. 1.1 system (a), comprising steam and water, is homogeneous in
composition, since chemical analysis would reveal that hydrogen and oxygen atoms are
presents in the ratio 2: 1 whether the sample be taken from the steam or from the water.
The same is true of system (b) containing uncombined hydrogen and oxygen gas in the
atomic ratio 2: 1 in the upper part, and water in the lower part. System (c) however, is
not homogeneous in composition, for the hydrogen and oxygen are present in the ratio
1: 1 in the upper part, but in the ratio 2: 1 (as water) in the lower part.
During the process represented by the line 2–3 (Fig. 1.3) the volume increases
rapidly and piston moves upwards Fig. 1.2 (iii).
Figure 1.3. p-v diagram Figure 1.4. Vapor pressure curve for
water.
For a pure substance, definite relationship exists between the saturation pressure
and saturation temperature as shown in Fig. 1.4, the curve so obtained is called vapor
pressure curve.
® It may be noted that if the temperature of the liquid water on cooling
becomes lower than the saturation temperature for the given pressure, the
liquid water is called a subcooled liquid. The point ‘1’ (in Fig. 1.3) illustrates
this situation, when the liquid water is cooled under atmospheric pressure to
a temperature of 20°C, which is below the saturation temperature (100°C).
® Further, at point ‘1’ the temperature of liquid is 20°C and corresponding to
this temperature, the saturation pressure is 0.0234 bar, which is lower than
the pressure on the liquid water, which is 1 atmosphere. Thus, the pressure
on the liquid water is greater than the saturation pressure at a given
temperature. In this condition, the liquid water is known as the compressed
liquid.
The term compressed liquid or sub-cooled liquid is used to distinguish it from
saturated liquid. All points in the liquid region indicate the states of the compressed
liquid.
® When all the liquid has been evaporated completely and heat is further
added, the temperature of the vapor increases. The curve 3-4 in Fig. 1.3
describes the process. When the temperature increases above the saturation
temperature (in this case 100°C), the vapor is known as the superheated
vapor and the temperature at this state is called the superheated
temperature. There is rapid increase in volume and the piston moves
upwards [Fig. 1.2 (iii)].
The difference between the superheated temperature and the saturation
temperature at the given pressure is called the degree of superheat.
® If the above-mentioned heating process is repeated at different pressures a
number of curve similar to 1-2-3-4 are obtained. Thus, if the heating of the
liquid water in the piston cylinder arrangement takes place under a constant
pressure of 12 bar with an initial temperature of 20°C until the liquid water
is converted into superheated steam, then curve 5-6-7-8 will represent the
process.
® In the above heating process, it may be noted that, as the pressure increases
the length of constant temperature vaporization gets reduced.
From the heating process at a constant pressure of 225 bar represented by
the curve 9-10-11 in Fig. 1.3, it can be seen that there is no constant temperature
vaporization line. The specific volume of the saturated liquid and of the saturated vapor
is the same, i.e., = . Such a state of the substance is called the critical state. The
parameters like temperature, pressure, volume, etc., at such a state are called critical
parameters.
® The curve 12-13 (Fig. 1.3) represents a constant pressure heating process,
when the pressure is greater than the critical pressure. At this state, the
liquid water is directly converted into superheated steam. As there is no
definite point at which the liquid water changes into superheated steam, it is
generally called liquid water when the temperature is less than the critical
temperature and superheated steam when the temperature is above the
critical temperature.
If the substance at the triple point is compressed until there is no vapor left and
the pressure on the resulting mixture of liquid and solid is increased, the temperature
will have to be changed for equilibrium to exist between the solid and the liquid.
Measurements of these pressures and temperatures give rise to a third curve on
the p-T diagram, starting at the triple point and continuing indefinitely.
The points representing the coexistence of (i) solid and vapor lie on the
‘sublimation curve’, (ii) liquid and vapor lie on the ‘vaporization curve’, (iii) liquid
and solid lie on the ‘fusion curve’. In the particular case of water, the sublimation
curve is called the frost line, the vaporization curve is called the steam line, and the
fusion curve is called the ice line.
The slopes of sublimation and the vaporization curves for all substances are
positive. The slope of the fusion curve, however may be positive or negative. The
fusion curve of most substances has a positive slope. Water is one of the important
exceptions.
v Triple Point
The triple point is merely the point of intersection of sublimation and
vaporization curves. It must be understood that only on p-T diagram is the triple point
represented by a point. On p-V diagram it is a line, and on a U-V diagram it is a triangle.
® The pressure and temperature at which all three phases of a pure substance
coexist may be measured with the apparatus that is used to measure vapor
pressure.
® Triple-point data for some interesting substances are given in Table 1.1.
A detailed study of the heating process reveals that the temperature of the solid rises
and then during the change of phase from solid to liquid (or solid to vapor) the
temperature remains constant. This phenomenon is common to all phase changes. Since
the temperature is constant, pressure and temperature are not independent properties
and cannot be used to specify state during a change of phase.
The combined picture of change of pressure, specific volume and temperature may
be shown on a three-dimensional state model. Fig. 1.6 illustrates the equilibrium states
for a pure substance which expands on fusion. Water is an example of a substance that
exhibits this phenomenon.
All the equilibrium states lie on the surface of the model. States represented by the
space above or below the surface are not possible. It may be seen that the triple point
appears as a line in this representation. The point C.P. is called the critical point and
no liquid phase exists at temperatures above the isotherms through this point. The term
evaporation is meaningless in this situation.
At the critical point the temperature and pressure are called the critical temperature
and the critical pressure respectively and when the temperature of a substance is above
the critical value, it is called a gas. It is not possible to cause a phase change in a gas
unless the temperature is lowered to a value less than the critical temperature. Oxygen
and nitrogen are examples of gases that have critical temperatures below normal
atmospheric temperature.
Triple point—The only state at which the solid, liquid and vapor phases coexist in
equilibrium.
® Critical point (C.P.). The limit of distinction between a liquid and vapor.
® Critical pressure. The pressure at the critical point.
® Critical temperature. The temperature at the critical point.
® Gas—A vapor whose temperature is greater than the critical temperature.
v Critical Point
The critical point represents the highest pressure and highest temperature at
which liquid and vapor can coexist in equilibrium. The state of water at critical
conditions whether it is saturated liquid or saturated vapor is unknown. Hence, the
latent heat of vaporization of water at this condition is either zero or undefined.
v Saturation Temperature
F Examples:
a. Water boils at 100°C at atmospheric condition (101.825 kPa)
b. Water boils at 179.91°C at a pressure of 1000 kPa.
c. Steam condenses at 311.06°C at 10 MPa.
d. Steam condenses at 39°C at 0.0070 MPa.
v Subcooled Liquid
A subcooled liquid is one which has a temperature lower than the saturation
temperature corresponding to the existing pressure
F Example:
Liquid water at 60°C and 101.325 is a subcooled liquid.
Why?
From the steam tables, the saturation temperature at 101.825 kPa
is 100°C. Since the actual temperature of liquid water of 60°C is less than
100°C, therefore, it is a subcooled liquid.
v Compressed Liquid
A compressed liquid is one which has a pressure higher than the saturation
pressure corresponding to the existing temperature.
F Question:
Is liquid water at 110 kPa and 100°C a compressed liquid?
Answer:
From steam tables, Psat at 100°C = 101.325 kpa.
Comparing:
The actual liquid water pressure of 110 kPa is greater than Psat at
100°C. Therefore, it is compressed liquid.
v Saturated Liquid
A saturated liquid is a liquid at the saturation. (saturation temperature or saturation
pressure) which has temperature equal to the boiling point corresponding to the existing
pressure. It is a pure liquid, i.e., it has no vapor content.
F Examples:
a. Liquid water at 100°C and 101.825 kPa.
b. Liquid water at 233.90°C and 3 MPa.
c. Liquid water at 324.75°C and 12 MPa.
v Vapor
Vapor is the name given to a gaseous phase that is in contact with the liquid
phase, or that is in the vicinity are state where some of it might be condensed.
F Examples:
a. Steam (water vapor) at 100°C and 101.325 kPa.
b. Steam at 212.42°C and 2 MPa.
c. Steam at 352.37°C and 17 MPa.
v Super-heated Vapor
A superheated vapor is a vapor having a temperature higher than the
saturation temperature corresponding to the existing pressure.
F Examples:
a. Steam at 200°C and 101.325 kPa.
200°C> (tsat at 101.325 kPa=100°C)
b. Steam at 300°C and 5 MPa.
F Example:
Determine the degrees of superheat of superheated steam at 200°C
and 101.325 kPa.
° = — (1.1.2)
F Example:
Determine the degrees subcooled of liquid and 101.325 kPa.
v Wet Vapor
A wet liquid vapor is a combination of saturated vapor and saturated liquid.
Besides p-V diagram which is useful because pressure and volume are easily
visualized and the T-s chart which is used in general thermodynamic work, there are
other charts which are of practical use for particular applications. The specific
enthalpy-specific entropy chart is used for steam plant work and the pressure-
specific enthalpy chart is used in refrigeration work. Sketches of these charts are
shown in Fig. 1.8. These charts are drawn for H2O (water and steam) and represent the
correct shape of the curves for this substance.
Formation of Steam
Consider a cylinder fitted with a piston which can move freely upwards and
downwards in it. Let, for the sake of simplicity, there be 1 kg of water at 0°C with
volume vf in m3 under the piston [Fig. 1.9 (i)]. Further let the piston is loaded with load
W to ensure heating at constant pressure. Now if the heat is imparted to water, a rise
in temperature will be noticed and this rise will continue till boiling point is reached.
The temperature at which water starts boiling depends upon the pressure and as such
for each pressure (under which water is heated) there is a different boiling point. This
boiling temperature is known as the temperature of formation of steam or saturation
temperature.
It may be noted during heating up to boiling point that there will be slight increase
in volume of water due to which piston moves up and hence work is obtained as shown
in Fig. 1.9 (ii). This work, however, is so small that is can be neglected.
Now, if supply of heat to water is continued it will be noticed that rise of
temperature after the boiling point is reached nil but piston starts moving upwards
which indicates that there is increase is volume which is only possible if steam
formation occurs. The heat being supplied does not show any rise of temperature but
changes water into vapor state (steam) and is known as latent heat or hidden heat. So
long as the steam is in contact with water, it is called wet steam [Fig. 1.9 (iii)] and if
heating of steam is further progressed [as shown in Fig. 1.9 (iv)] such that all the water
particles associated with steam are evaporated, the steam so obtained is called dry and
saturated steam. If vg m3 is the volume of 1 kg of dry and saturated steam then work
done on the piston will be
= − (1.1.3)
where p is the constant pressure (due to weight ‘W’ on the piston).
Again, if supply of heat to the dry and saturated steam is continued at constant
pressure there will be increase in temperature and volume of steam. The steam so
obtained is called superheated steam and it behaves like a perfect gas. This phase of
steam formation is illustrated in Fig. 1.9 (v).
v Sensible Heat, hf
Heat that causes change in temperature without a change in phase.
It is defined as the quantity of heat absorbed by 1 kg of water when it is
heated from 0°C (freezing point) to boiling point. It is also called total heat (or
enthalpy) of water or liquid heat invariably. It is reckoned from 0°C where
sensible heat is taken as zero. If 1 kg of water is heated from 0°C to 100°C the
sensible heat added to it will be 4.18 × 100 = 418 kJ but if water is at say 20°C
initially then sensible heat added will be 4.18 × (100 – 20) = 334.4 kJ. This type
of heat is denoted by letter hf and its value can be directly read from the
steam tables.
F Examples:
a. Heat added in raising the temperature of steam from 100°C at 101.325
kPa to 150°C.
b. Heat removed in lowering the temperate of water from 90°C to 80°C.
Note. The value of specific heat of water may be taken as 4.18 kJ/kg K at low
pressures but at high pressures it is different from this value.
v Percent Moisture, y
The percent moisture of wet vapor is the percent by weight that is saturated
liquid.
Then, m = mg + mf
Following the definitions of quality (x) and percent moisture (y),
= 100 (1.1.3)
= 100 (1.1.4)
always carried out at constant pressure. The additional amount of heat supplied to the
steam during superheating is called as ‘Heat of superheat’ and can be calculated by
using the specific heat of superheated steam at constant pressure (c
ps), the value of which varies from 2.0 to 2.1 kJ/kg K depending upon pressure and
temperature.
If Tsup, Ts are the temperatures of superheated steam in K and wet or dry
steam, then (Tsup– Ts) is called ‘degree of superheat’.
ℎ = ℎ + ℎ + ( – ) (1.1.7)
Superheated steam behaves like a gas and therefore it follows the gas laws.
The value of n for this type of steam is 1.3 and the law for the adiabatic expansion is
pv1.3 = constant.

In engineering problem, for any fluid which is used as working fluid, the six
basic thermodynamic properties required are: p (pressure), T (temperature), v
(volume), u (internal energy), h (enthalpy) and s (entropy). These properties must be
known at different pressure for analyzing the thermodynamic cycles used for work
producing devices. The values of these properties are determined theoretically or
experimentally and are tabulated in the form of tables which are known as ‘Steam
Tables’. The properties of wet steam are then computed from such tabulated
data. Tabulated values are also available for superheated steam. It may be noted that
steam has only one saturation temperature at each pressure.

The latent heat consists of true latent heat and the work of evaporation. This
true latent heat is called the internal latent heat and may also be found as follows:
Internal latent heat = ℎ – (1.1.22)
J = 1 in SI units.
utilized in doing external work. Hence the internal energy of steam could be found by
subtracting work of evaporation from the total heat.
In other words,

Entropy of Evaporation

When water is evaporated to steam completely the heat absorbed is the latent
heat and this heat goes into water without showing any rise of temperature.
Then = ℎ
and
ℎ
.= (1.1.28)
However, in case of wet steam with dryness fraction x the evaporation will be
partial and heat absorbed will be ℎ per kg of steam. The change of entropy will be
ℎ
Δ = (1.1.29)
The total entropy of wet steam is the sum of entropy of water (sf) and entropy
of evaporation (sfg).
In other words,
ℎ
= + (1.1.30)
= Entropy of evaporation.
Δ = log (1.1.32)
Dr. Mollier, in 1904, conceived the idea of plotting total heat against entropy,
and his diagram is more widely used than any other entropy diagram, since the work
done on vapor cycles can be scaled from this diagram directly as a length; whereas on
T-s diagram it is represented by an area.

Solution:
From Steam Tables by keenan.
(a) ts at 1.44 MPa = 196.39°C
Since 200°C > ts at 1.44 MPa, the steam is superheated.
(b) ts at 2.318 MPa = 220°C
Since 220°C = ts at 2.318 MPa, the steam is saturated vapor (dry).
(c) ts at 1.0 MPa = 6.5865 kJ/kg-K
Since 6.672 kJ/kg-K > sg at 1.0 MPa, the steam is superheated.
(d) ts at 3.0 MPa = 23.90°C
Since 234°C > ts at 3.0 MPa, the steam is superheated.
(e) vg at 250°C = 50.13x10-3 m3/kg
Since 54.2x10-3 m3/kg > vg at 250°C, the steam is superheated.
(f) hg at 11.0 MPa =
Since 2805 kJ/kg > hg at 11.0 MPa, the steam is superheated.
(g) sg at 4.0 MPa = 6.0701 kJ/kg-K
Since 5.897 kJ/kg-K < sg at 4.0 MPa, the steam is a wet mixture.
(b) ts at 15.0 MPa = 342.24°C
Since 310°C< ts at 15.0 MPa, the steam is a wet mixture.
What is the specific volume, internal energy, enthalpy, and entropy of steam
at 1.50 MPa and 254°C?
Solution:
The steam is superheated, since the temperature of 254°C is greater than the
saturation temperature, 198°C, at 1.50 MPa.
Use Table 4 of steam tables for superheated steam.
At 1.5 MPa and 254 °C, the exact values of v, u, h and s are not shown in the table,
therefore we have to interpolate using the nearest values such as 250°C and 260°C in
the table as shown below.

Solution:
The entropy of saturated vapor at a pressure of 0.90 MPa is 6.6185 kJ/(kg)(K),
therefore, steam with an entropy of 4.9678 kJ/(kg) (K) is a wet-mixture.

Since the specific volume, 0.09765 ins/kg, is greater than the Specific volume of
saturated steam, 0.02167 kg at 300°C, the steam is superheated.

Introduction
Although vapors and ideal gases have similarity in forms and in their processes,
all of the equations that are based on the characteristic equation of a perfect gas or on
Joule's Law, for instance, are not generally applicable to vapors. But the general energy
equation,
+ + + + = + + + + (1.2.1)
= − + (1.2.2)
are not based on any limitations concerning the substance. They are applicable,
therefore, to processes vapors as well as of gases. Therefore, in this lesson, compare the
equations obtained with analogous one for a gas. This way we can avoid the improper
application of a perfect gas equation to a vapor.
Point 1 is in the liquid region and the condition of the substance is ‘subcooled’
or ‘compressed’ liquid. It is generally defined by giving its pressure and temperature.
Point f lies on the saturation curve and is therefore saturated liquid at a given
pressure or temperature.
Point m is in the wet region, is a mixture of liquid and vapor. Quality x and a
pressure or temperature generally defines the condition of the substance. Thus, for the
enthalpy at point m,
ℎ =ℎ + ℎ (1.2.3)
