solve all steps
Problem 2: Steam is used to desalinate a brackish stream at a flow rate of 850kg/s and an inlet temperature of 30.C. The feed water contains 2.5% Salt. Saturated Steam 6 bar of 80% quality is used as heating media and exits as saturated liquid water at 4.8 bars. If 60% of the water is vaporized and the pressure in the desalination vessel is 1.013 bar, determine the flow rate of the steam. Problem 3: Seawater stream at a flow rate of 1050kg/s and inlet temperature of 30∘C is desalinated to produce freshwater. The feed water contains 4.1% Salt. Saturated Steam at a flow rate of 300 kg/s at 5 bar of 80% quality is used as heating media and exits as saturated liquid water at 4.8 bars. Determine the flow rate and compositions of the vapour and brine streams.
