The thermal reservoirs for a Carnot engine are two constant pressure steam lines one at TH =300 C and one at TL of 25 C.
• As heat transfer occurs from the high temperature steam line, saturated vapor passing through the line at a mass flow rate of 3 kg/s is condensed to a quality of 0.95.
• If the steam line entering the low temperature reservoir carries saturated liquid at a mass flow rate of 2.5 kg/s, what is the exit quality of the steam?
