Answer:

specific volume by ideal gas equation = 0.01917 m³/kg

specific volume by compressibility chart = 0.01246 m³/kg

specif volume by super heated stream table is 0.0114810 m³/kg

Explanation:

given data

temperature  T = 350°C = 623 K

pressure P = 15 MPa = 15000 kPa

to find out

specific volume by  ideal-gas equation ,generalized compressibility chart and steam tables

solution

we will apply here ideal gas equation that is

specific volume = [tex]\frac{R*T}{P}[/tex]   ..............1

here P is pressure and T is temperature and R is gas constant i.e 0.4615 kJ/kg-K

specific volume =  [tex]\frac{0.4615*623}{15000}[/tex]

specific volume = 0.01917 m³/kg

and

by the compressibility chart

critical pressure of water Pcr = 22.06 Mpa

and critical temperature of water Tcr = 647.1 K

so

reduced pressure will be = [tex]\frac{P}{Pcr}[/tex]

reduced pressure = [tex]\frac{15}{22.06}[/tex] = 0.68 Mpa

and

reduced temperature will be = [tex]\frac{T}{Tcr}[/tex]

reduced pressure = [tex]\frac{623}{647.1}[/tex] = 0.963 K

so by compressibility chart pressure 0.68 Mpa and temperature 0.963 K

compressibility factor Z is 0.65

so

specific volume = compressibility factor Z × ideal specific volume

specific volume = 0.65 × 0.01917

specific volume = 0.01246 m³/kg

and

by the steam table

use here super heated stream table for

pressure = 15 Mpa

ans temperature = 350°C

so

specif volume by super heated stream table is 0.0114810 m³/kg
