Joule-Thomson coefficient in double-phase area


Temperature: K

Vapor fraction:

Joule-Thomson coefficient in double-phase area: 2,76304783957717E-04 K/Pa


To process this page used the WaterSteamPro function "wspJOULETHOMPSONSTX": joule-Thomson coefficient in double-phase area [K/Pa] as function of temperature t [K], vapor fraction x [-].

Function calculate the Joule-Thomson coefficient in double-phase area by equation at saturation line: JT = (dT/dP)h. Until version 5.6 the function used wspJOULETHOMPSONSST and wspJOULETHOMPSONSWT and returned value from following formula: JTx = (1 - X)·JOULETHOMPSONw + X·JOULETHOMPSONs, where JOULETHOMPSONs = wspJOULETHOMPSONSST, JOULETHOMPSONw = wspJOULETHOMPSONSWT and X - vapor vapor fraction that did not conform to definition of Joule-Thomson coefficient. Now it calculates correctly. The range of validity is double-phase (water-vapor) area.
