Problem 3. An insulated mixing chamber receives 5.0 kg/s of superheated steam at 3 MPa and 280°C through one inlet, and saturated liquid water at 3 MPa through a second inlet. The combined stream exits with a quality of 0.80 and a pressure of 3 MPa. A fan, using 10 kW of power, is used to aid the mixing process. Determine the mass flow of the saturated liquid entering the system through the second inlet.
