Superheated steam at 1500 kPa, has a specific volume of 2.75 m³/kmol and compressibility factor (Z) of 0.95. The temperature of steam is ____ °C (round off to the nearest integer).

  1. 522
  2. Reynolds number and Prandtl number
  3. Biot number and Froude number
  4. Nusselt number and Grashoff number

Correct answer: 522

Solution

The correct option is 522 °C because, using the provided specific volume and compressibility factor, we can apply the ideal gas law and steam tables to determine the temperature of superheated steam at the given pressure.
