Solves the steam tank problem: Given a tank of volume V (m^3) in which VL0 (m^3) of liquid water is in equilibrium with water vapor at T0 (K), suppose an inlet steam line at Ti (K) and quality xi is allowed to inject steam into tank until pressure in tank reaches P1 (MPa). Compute the mass of steam injected (kg) and the quality of the tank contents.
