An insulated rigid container is divided into two parts by a thin partition. One part of the container contains 6 kg of saturated liquid-vapor mixture with a dryness fraction of 0.7 at 0.3 MPa. The other part contains 12 kg of saturated liquid at 0.6 MPa of the same substance. When the partition is removed and the system attains equilibrium, the final specific volume of the mixture is _______ 3 m /kg (round off to 2 decimal places). Use the following property values: 3 3 3 3 At 0.3 MPa : 0.001073 m /kg, 0.60582 m /kg At 0.6 MPa : 0.001101 m /kg, 0.31560 m /kg f g f g v v v v = = = =
Answer: 0.13 to 0.15
