Question
Two tanks (Tank A and Tank B) are separated by a partition. Initially Tank A contains 2-kg steam at 1 MPa
and 300°C while Tank B contains 3-kg saturated liquid–vapor mixture with a vapor mass fraction of 50
percent. Now the partition is removed and the two sides are allowed to mix until the mechanical and
thermal equilibrium are established. If the pressure at the final state is 300 kPa, determine (a) the
temperature and quality of the steam (if mixture) at the final state and (b) the amount of heat lost from the
tanks
