The video tutorial explains how to find pressure using given enthalpy and temperature values. It starts with drawing a TV diagram and using saturated water tables to determine the state of the substance. The tutorial identifies the state as superheated vapor and proceeds to calculate the pressure by comparing enthalpy values at different pressures. The final pressure is determined by interpolating between two pressure values.
