AI Thread Summary
To complete the thermodynamic table for H2O, identify the appropriate tables based on the phase and conditions provided. Use saturated tables for phase values, compressed liquid tables for high pressures, and superheated vapor tables for high temperatures. Intensive properties are essential to start the process, and if exact values are not available, interpolation may be necessary. Understanding how to match the given temperature and pressure to the correct table is crucial for solving these types of problems. Familiarity with the thermodynamic properties of water will aid in accurately filling out the table.

Complete this table for H20:

Homework Equations



T, °C...P, kPa.....h, kJ/kg...x Phase...description
200 ............0.7
140.........1800
......95.........0.0
80....500
......800.....3162.2I just need help getting started, all I have is a packet full of tables and I don't know which to use and when, if someone could give me some general information on solving this type of questions so I can do other ones by myself it would be much appreciated.

I know that were supposed to find 2 intensive properties to start but then I don't know what to do since there a lot of tables. Does anyone know how to do this?
 
You just have to match up the values. If you have a phase it will be in the saturated tables, high pressures in compressed liquid tables, and high temperatures in superheated vapor tables. If you can't find the numbers on the tables then you have to use interpolation.
