| quality | A measure of the relative amounts of vapor and liquid exist in a two-phase system. The quality is defined as the ratio of the mass of vapor to the total mass of the system. Saturated vapor has a quality of one because all of the mass is in the vapor phase. Saturated liquid has a quality of zero because none of the mass in in the vapor phase.
