The outflow of a vapor-liquid system from a large vessel 
through a slot has been considered. For the adiabatic flow of a liquid 
coming to the boil, a barotropic equation of state is proposed. It 
is shown that, depending on the conditions inside the vessel and at 
its outlet, the outflow process proceeds in both the regime of gas-dynamic 
confinement and the subsonic regime. Examples of numerical calculations 
are given.
