    Where can I find the specific volume of steam at 179.91 deg Celsius?

    Hi, Here's a quick fix: At 7b, v_f = 0.001108 m^3/kg v_g = 0.2729 m^3/kg Since the masses of steam and water are given, we can find the total volume of the closed tank to be V_total = (0.287 * 0.001108) + (0.713 * 0.2729) m^3 = 0.1949 m^3 We know that the volume remains...
