A conduit carrying water vapor has one inlet and two exits. At the inlet, the velocity 25 m/s, the pressure is 4 bar and the temperature is 350 Celsius. The area at the inlet is 0.2 m^2 . At both the exits, the temperature and pressure are 300 Celsius and 3 bar respectively. The volumetric flow rate is identical at the two exits. Assuming steady-state conditions, calculate the volumetric flow rate at the exits.

Water vapor goes into a diffuser at steady state, with inlet conditions of 800 kPa, 200°C and velocity of 400 m/s. Superheated steam leaves the outlet at 2 MPa and velocity of 2 100 m/s. The inlet area of the diffuser is 14 cm . The system loses heat at the rate of 25 kJ/s to the surroundings. Neglect changes in potential energy between the inlet and outlet. What is the mass flow rate of the water vapor, in kg/s?...

Saturated water vapor at 1000 kPa is throttled to 100 kPa. The velocity of the steam remains constant through the process. Determine the exit temperature of the water vapor. I know this is already awnsered in a solution for 1st edition but can someone help me understand what they do and how they picked the numbers they did from some table to get the exit temperature?
