Draw the entropy diagram, Fig. 119. Then the area TiT2s2mi V2represents H2-Hx in the formula — = 778(H2-Hi). We may obtain that area by either exact or approximatemethods If TXT2 is assumed to be a straight line, the area of thetrapezoid TiT2s2mx is= (T2-T1)B, where 2L, , 2fo-fc) B= T2s2 + Tlmi 2e2e2+eie2 T7 2 TV Tt + T7 218 THE STEAM-ENGINE AND OTHER HEAT-MOTORS.

The more exact method would give 1470 feet per second. Ifthe steam expands adiabatically, its quality is Tint or eie3=r 1-5731 ENTROPY. 219 At pounds the volume per pound weight of dry steamis cubic feet. The volume per pound of wet steam = cubic feet.

If steam of an initial absolute pressure of poundsflows through an orifice whose cross-sectional area is .0355 squareinch, against a back pressure of 67 pounds absolute, find the velocityof discharge and volume and weight of steam discharged per second.
