Explanation:

A hydrostatic testing machine is the equipment used to measure the strength or structural integrity of high pressure vessels that are designed for the transportation of liquids or gas. Among the containers that can be subjected to hydrostatic tests can be found boilers, gas cylinders (transport or storage) and pipes of water and gas systems.

In general, the use of this type of equipment is responsible for ensuring that the different types of containers do not leak in the entire container, pipes and connections, as well as that they are structurally safe to be operated by a person or Otherwise, the risk of leakage or explosion due to high pressure can be very high.

To perform hydrostatic tests on pipes or containers, it is necessary that the object to be evaluated be placed in a steel chamber that is filled with water at normal pressure; subsequently, the pressurized water is pumped into the item being tested, so that the container will expand, forcing the water out of the steel chamber and subsequently the pressure is released, which forces the water to return to The steel chamber.

From this test you can calculate the amount of water that goes out and the one that returns to the steel chamber, which is used to determine if the containers and pipes that are being tested pass or fail the hydrostatic test. From the tests it can be determined if the items are safe for use, if they require repairs or need replacing.

In the case of reusable high pressure refrigerant containers, the tests of said containers must be carried out at least every 5 years to avoid accidents and determine the conditions in which the container is located.

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.
