As shown in the figure, 15 kg/s of steam with a velocity of 20 m/s and a themodynamic state at 30 bar, 320 °C enters a tank where it is mixed with liquid water at 30 bar, 160 °C. As a result, saturated vapor leaves the tank at the same pressure. Kinetic and potential energy effects and heat transfer between the tank and its suroundings can be neglected. Determine a) The mass flow rate of liquid water, in kg/s. b) Cross-sectional area of the inlet line of superheated steam, in m². c) Entropy production rate in the process, in kW/K.
