Question

Consider steam in a container initially at 600 C and 10 MPa. The container walls are rigid and have negligible heat capacity. There is a barrier in the container that ruptures. The initial volume of the container is Vi = 1.0 m3, and the final volume is 200% greater, i.e. Vf = 3.0 m3. After rupturing and a long time has passed the steam is at equilibrium within the vessel at the new volume.

Calculate the final pressure and temperature of the steam assuming the steam is an ideal gas.

Calculate the final pressure and temperature of the steam using the steam tables
