The saturation pressure of water at 322 C is ~114 atm. This means steam and water can coexist (and are in equilibrium). It's probably been done before, but I thought it was cool

@unnamed4798 I have tried watr-ice but the pressure requirement turns it into SNOW instead of driving it straight to water. IRL, pressurizing ice turns it to water due to density

Can you give WATR-ICE example?

This is just a pretty neat thing i like.

@Chrissyfrizz making the titanium box first helps. Also, there's a small glitch where you have a localized pressure bubble right outside the titanium sometimes, so I just fill it with more titanium

how are you keeping the preassure in, i can never get the same preassure holding with the same thickness or thicker titanium

However, if you increase the pressure and temperatures up to these meanings, it will still behave as here by default

I checked the water phase diagram at Wikipedia and I can say it's rather accurate. @Aggrppa Yes, it's not supercritical, to reach this state we need at least 374 C and 221 atm.

@PowderyNerd Yes, because the liquid and vapor are right at the boiling conditions, they are saturated (in contrast to being superheated or subcooled)

@SsaucySam, saturation occurs as the same temperate as boiling (latent heat of vaporization), so this is truly saturated

to those called it supercitical; it is saturated, but not supercitical. Supercitical water happens when the temperature and pressure is high enough water sinply remains in 'gas' form and able to achieve higher density
