Entropy of steam. Calculate the entropy change of steam between states P1 = 36 bar, T1 = 250∘C and P2 = 22 bar, T2 = 400∘C by direct application of the definition of entropy. Compare with steam table values. Hint. Devise a path of constant pressure followed by a path of constant volume that connects the two states. Use tabulated values of U and H to calculate the required heat capacities.
