Question:

An inventor has proposed a flow device of secret design for increasing the superheat of steam. He claims that a feed steam at 1 bar and 100°C is converted to superheated steam at 1 bar and 250°C and saturated water (that is, water at its boiling point) also at 1 bar, and that no additional heat or work is needed. He also claims that 89.9 percent of the outlet product is superheated steam, and the remainder is saturated water. Will the device work as claimed?
