The document presents on the properties and applications of wet saturated and superheated water vapor. It discusses that wet saturated water vapor is a mixture of water vapor and liquid water at saturation conditions and is used in applications like steam cleaning. Superheated water vapor has a higher specific volume than wet saturated vapor and is used in industrial processes and power generation. The presentation explores the key properties of each and their various applications.

9. Applications of Wet
Saturated Water Vapor
Wet saturated water vapor is
used in steam cleaning,
sterilization, and cooking.
It is also used in the food
processing industry to
blanch vegetables and
pasteurize milk.
10. Properties of Superheated Water
Vapor
Superheated water vapor is water
vapor at a temperature above
its saturation point. It has a
higher specific volume than wet
saturated water vapor and is used
in gas turbines to generate
electricity.
12. Applications of Superheated Water
Vapor
Superheated water vapor is used
in industrial processes such as
drying, chemical reactions,
and steam reforming. It is also
used in geothermal power
plants to generate electricity.
13. Conclusion
Wet saturated and superheated water vapor have unique
properties that make them useful in various applications.
From steam power plants to industrial processes, they play
an important role in our daily lives.
