Wet Steam on a T–s Sketch
This interactive simulator explores Wet Steam (T–s sketch) in Thermodynamics. Vapor dome, horizontal isobar in two-phase region, quality x and superheat sketch. Use the controls to change the scenario; watch the visualization and any graphs or readouts to connect the model with lectures, labs, and homework.
Who it's for: Best once you already know the basic definitions and want to build intuition. Typical context: Thermodynamics.

How it works
For a pure substance, the two-phase region on a temperature–entropy diagram is bounded by the saturated liquid and vapor curves. Quality describes how far between them you are on an isobar. Superheated vapor lies to the right of the dome at higher T and s.
