. Steam at 5.3 MPa, 400 °C expands in a Rankine turbine to 0.036 MPa. For 136 kg/s of steam, determine the work, the thermal efficiency, and the steam rate (a) for the cycle, and (b) for the turbine. (c) For an actual urbine with the same specifications, the brake steam rate is 4.8 kg/kWh and the driven electric generator has n efficiency of 93 %. Find eb, Nb, Wk, and quality or temperature of actual exhaust steam.
