At 10 bar, the given v is between vf and vg, so the state is mixed. Using the relation for quality:
v v f x (v g v f )
0.0978 .0011273 x(.1944 .001273)
x 0.5
u u f x(u f u g ) 0.5(u f u g ) 1672.6 kJ/ kg
Weve got pressure and temperature, but we don t know if the IGL is valid. Easy enough to check. P = 62 atm, and Pcr =
72.9 atm, so Pr=0.85. T = 575 R and Tcr = 548 R, so Tr = 1.05. From the compressibility chart, z is very close to 0.7, so:
RT 1545 575 ( ft lbf / lbmol R) R ft 3
vz 0.7 0.1077
P 44 911(144) lb / lbmol lbf / ft 3 lb
From the saturated table, we see that this state is SHV. Were between two pressure and two temperatures, so its a
double interpolation. First, we get the numbers in red, then interpolate between those to get 110.02 Btu/lb.
At 20 bar, this is below the saturation temperature, so were CL. Use vg(20 C) = 1.999e-03 m3/kg. Converting to ft3/lb
gives 0.032 ft3/lb.
Checking the saturated tables at v = 175 ft3/lb, u is much greater than the value shown, so were probably mixed. Choose
a temperature and calculate x for the v value, then compare to u. Do a second guess, then interpolate to converge to 100
