Problem \#3(10 points)
A geothermal source provides \(5\mathrm{~kg}/\mathrm{s}\) of hot water at 600\(\mathrm{kPa},150^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) flowing through a throttling valve and then going into a rigid and well-insulated flash evaporator that separates saturated vapor and saturated liquid at 100 kPa .
a) Find the flow work per unit mass flow (in \(\mathrm{kJ}/\mathrm{kg}\)) at the inlet 1, exit 2, and exit 3.
b) Find the enthalpy per unit mass flow (in \(\mathrm{kJ}/\mathrm{kg}\)) at the inlet 1, exit 2, and exit 3.
c) Find the water mass flowrate at the exit 2 and at exit 3.
