Talk:Steam quality

I believe the opposite is true. Steam with a quality of 1 is completely dry. Steam with a quality of 0 is completely saturated. Therefore, quality is the proportion of steam that is superheated.

Steam Quality Meaning of "Superheated"
Superheated steam, I believe is steam above the saturation temperature at a given pressure. Superheated steam by definition would have a quality of 1.

See

Therefore since steam quality pertains to saturated steam, then I believe that quality can defined as the mass fraction of water in the vapour phase divided by the total (ie liquid + vapour) MarDel 18:11, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Remove Redirect to Vapour Quality
Steam quality is not the same as vapour quality. Steam quality is the ratio of steam mass flow (kg/s) and total mass flow (kg/s), whereas vapour quality, or better yet vapour fraction, is the ratio of steam mass (kg) and total mass (kg). The term vapour fraction is used by the International Association for the Properties of Water and Steam, see, and is directly obtained from the equation-of-state.

The article on slip ratio points to this page and is erroneously redirected to the article Vapour Quality. Steam quality and slip ratio are related through void fraction. Hummeling (talk) 08:32, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
