Objective :
1- To show the relationship between pressure and temperature of saturated steam in
equilibrium
2- To show of the vapor pressure curve
3- To understand the concept of relationship of pressure and temperature steam in
equilibrium with water .
4- To plotted the curve of saturation pressure of the steam
5- To record the temperature and pressure of the saturated steam
6- To list the applications of the saturation steam in equilibrium with water
Abstract :
The experiment was carried out to show the relationship between the temperature and
the pressure osf saturated steam in equilibrium. Besides , this laboratory experiment
also carried out to demonstrate the vapor pressure curve. The device use in this
experiment is Marcet boiler. When the temperature increase , the pressure also
increase. So the relationship between the temperature and pressure is directly
proportional. The derived formulae and the data were used to calculate the slope . The
dT/dP was compared with the data in the property table. Theoretically the values

measured should be the same with predicted values. However at a certain points , the
values are not the same. This may because of the errors made in the experiment.

Conclusion:

Marcet boiler is the device which we use to study the relation in between
pressure and temperature for a water at saturated liquid phase. As we did in the
laboratory, we started heating water with constant pressure until it reached boiling
point. Then, closing the valve which created a constant volume system. Forcing the
pressure to increase as the temperature rises. And thus studying the direct relation
between pressure and temperature for water at that point. We notice that it is
essential to close the valve as we reach boiling point to make sure we are now in a
constant volume process, otherwise pressure would have never increased. causing
the experiment to be useless. We also notice that we closed the valve exactly when
we reached boiling temperature (95 c at 0.9 bar pressure) and thus keeping water at

saturated liquid phase. After studying the results and plotting the diagram we find
that the
