Pressure & Temperature Effects on Water State: 25 bar @ 200°C

AI Thread Summary
At 25 bar and 200°C, water remains in a liquid state rather than steam. The boiling point of water at this pressure is approximately 224°C, which is higher than the given temperature. Therefore, since the temperature is below the boiling point, water does not transition to vapor. The Antoine equation can be applied to confirm these conditions. Consequently, water at 25 bar and 200°C is still liquid.

What would the state of water be at if the pressure is 25 bar and the temp is 200 degrees Celsius?

You can use a version of Antoine equation, which is valid for high pressures and temperatures. For example use this one, which is valid in the range of 1°C to 374°C and 4.89 mmHg to 162991 mmHg.

Calculate a boiling temperature at 25 bar. It is around 224°C. It is more than 200, so we still have water at 200. Not steam.
