Thermodynamics

This is the solution for the question posted below. I just need someone to please explain to me where 4.18 comes from?

question: Steam at 1 bar enters an adiabatic heat exchanger with a quality of 0.896 and exits as a saturated liquid. The steam is being cooled by a 861 kg/s stream of water which enters the heat exchanger at 20oC and exits at 40oC. The two flows do not mix. Determine the volumetric flow rate (m3/s) of the steam entering the heat exchanger.

A+ x 0.846 86 Steam to cos= 861x4.13(40-20) 2440 35.518

Explanation / Answer

In this solution, "4.18 Kj/Kg" is the Specific heat for water at constant pressure and it's a standard value for water.
