Density of H20 @ 150 C & 600 psi

In summary, the conversation is discussing how to look up the density of water at 150 degrees Celsius and 600 pounds per square inch (psi) pressure, with the addition of carbon dioxide (CO2). It is mentioned that the density of water is related to both pressure and temperature. The conversation also touches upon the difference in density if there is no gas present. It is suggested to use steam tables to find the density of this two-phase system. However, the available tables do not cover these specific values. The use of mixed units (metric and imperial) is also questioned.

Can anyone please show me how to look up Density of H20 @ 150 C & 600 psi pressure (Co2)...

I found a water table which shows 916.69 kg/m^3 but it does not show anything @ pressure. Isnt density related to both pressure & temp.?

What would be the difference in density if No gas was there and is gas was there?

Unless you need some very accurate data you may safely assume water is incompressible. If my tables don't fail me and I read them correctly, at 150 deg C pressure of water vapor is around 5 atm.

This question really belongs in the mechancial engineering section.

You need a set of steam tables as the substance you are referring to is water at 600psi and 150 degC is a two phase system of water and dry steam.

I'm sorry I don't have these values covered in my available tables tonight.

Why the mixed units metric and imperial by the way?

No. Have you read my post? I have specifically addressed this problem - not directly, but precisely enough.

FAQ: Density of H20 @ 150 C & 600 psi

What is the density of water at 150°C and 600 psi?

The density of water at 150°C and 600 psi is approximately 0.69 grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm3).

How does the density of water at 150°C and 600 psi compare to its density at standard conditions?

The density of water at 150°C and 600 psi is significantly lower than its density at standard conditions (1 g/cm3). This is due to the increase in temperature and pressure, which causes the water molecules to expand and take up more volume.

Why is it important to know the density of water at different temperatures and pressures?

The density of water can have a significant impact on various processes and systems, such as chemical reactions, industrial processes, and power generation. Knowing the density at different conditions allows for better calculations and predictions in these applications.

How does the density of water at 150°C and 600 psi change with increasing pressure?

The density of water at 150°C will generally increase with increasing pressure. This is because the increased pressure forces the water molecules closer together, reducing the amount of space they occupy and increasing the density.

Can the density of water at 150°C and 600 psi be calculated using a formula?

Yes, the density of water at 150°C and 600 psi can be calculated using the following formula: D = M/V, where D is the density, M is the mass, and V is the volume. However, this calculation may be affected by other factors such as impurities and dissolved substances in the water. It is recommended to use a density table or experimentally measure the density for more accurate results.
