Answer

$\Delta T=-42.3°C$ $v_2=0.0345\ m³/kg$

Work Step by Step

From tables A-11 to A-13: Inlet ($P_1=0.7\ MPa$, sat. liquid): $T_1=26.69°C,\ h_1=88.2\ kJ/kg$ Outlet ($P_2=0.16\ MPa, h_2=h_1$): $T_2=-15.60°C,\ x_2=0.2745$ The temperature drop is: $\Delta T=-42.3°C$ The specific volume is: $v_2=v_{2,L}+x_2v_{2,G}$ $v_2=0.0345\ m³/kg$
