Answer:
Enthalpy, hsteam = 2663.7 kJ/kg
Volume, Vsteam = 0.3598613 m^3 / kg
Density = 2.67 kg/ m^3
Step-by-step explanation:
Mass of steam, m = 1 kg
Pressure of the steam, P = 0.5 MN/m^2
Dryness fraction, x = 0.96
At P = 0.5 MPa:
Tsat = 151.831°C
Vf = 0.00109255 m^3 / kg
Vg = 0.37481 m^3 / kg
hf = 640.09 kJ/kg
hg = 2748.1 kJ/kg
hfg = 2108 kJ/kg
The enthalpy can be given by the formula:
hsteam = hf + x * hfg
hsteam = 640.09 + ( 0.96 * 2108)
hsteam = 2663.7 kJ/kg
The volume of the steam can be given as:
Vsteam = Vf + x(Vg - Vf)
Vsteam = 0.00109255 + 0.96(0.37481 - 640.09)
Vsteam = 0.3598613 m^3 / kg
From the steam table, the density of the steam at a pressure of 0.5 MPa is 2.67 kg/ m^3
