A 12 ft^3 rigid tank initially contains saturated water vapor at 250 F. The tank is connected by a valve to a supply line that carries steam at 160 psia and 400 F. Now the valve is<br>opened, and steam is allowed to enter the tank. Heat transfer takes place with the surrounds such that the temperature in the tank remains constant at 250 F at all times.
