Superheated steam at 5MPa and 4000C flows at a rate of 3kg/s through a well insulated horizontal nozzle operating at steady state. The inlet steam enters the nozzle at velocity of 20m/s and exits at 500m/s at 100kPa.

Determine:

A) Whether steam entering the nozzle is considered an ideal gas? Find the specific enthalpy and specific volume at entrance of nozzle?

B) Find the exit temperature in K? What is the phase of the steam exiting the nozzle? Determine the exiting temperature, specific volume, and specific enthalpy?
