Find entropy where the temperature is lower than the saturated temperature

AI Thread Summary
To find the entropy and enthalpy at a pressure of 100 bar and a temperature of 260°C, the dryness fraction (x) must be determined, but there are two unknowns in the equations. The availability equation requires values for enthalpy (h) and entropy (s), which depend on the saturation properties at the given pressure. The saturation temperature at 100 bar is 311°C, indicating that the system is subcooled. To compute the necessary values for s and h, using the ASME steam tables is recommended for accurate results. Understanding these properties is essential for calculating availability in thermodynamic systems.

my starting of system is 100 bar and 260 degree C. the saturation temperature for 100 bar is 311 degree C. so in order to find my enthalpy and entropy, i need to find x, dryness fraction. but my equation have 2 unknowns. how do I calculate availability?

availability = (h-h0) -T0(s-s0)

s = sf + xsfg

have 2 unknowns. how do i compute s and h in order to compute availability?

Thread 'Bubble formation in 4 mm gap vessel'

How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...

Thread 'Find 3D Printer & Software Resources for Prototype Creation'

I'd like to create a thread with links to 3-D Printer resources, including printers and software package suggestions. My motivations are selfish, as I have a 3-D printed project that I'm working on, and I'd like to buy a simple printer and use low cost software to make the first prototype. There are some previous threads about 3-D printing like this: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/are-3d-printers-easy-to-use-yet.917489/ but none that address the overall topic (unless I've missed...
