Question

Properties of water under pressure


Sent to General Experts August 14, 2006 2:32 p.m.

What is the temperatrue rise in water if atomized under 20,000 lbs p.s.i.? If I were to introduce the atomized water, that had been presurized to 20,000 psi, into a a cylinder and then pressurized it by reducing the volume of the cylinder to 1/16th its' original capacity, would the water turn to steam?

Temperature rise in water would be dependent on the temperature of the water, the thermal properties of the equipment and connections, used in the pressurizing process. The ability of water to turn into steam is reduced under pressure. At normal room temperatures the water would not turn into steam. More information can be found in the following web sites.
