A rigid, well-insulated tank is initially empty. The tank is kept connected by means of a valve to a steam line carrying steam at 2 MPa and 400 °C. The valve is opened and the steam flows slowly into the tank until the tank pressure balances with the pressure of the line. Determine the final temperature of the steam in the tank. *Take note that the line pressure is kept constant during this process.
