A 60,000 kW steam engine operates at 8.0MPA and 540°C and expands at 0.0035 MPa. The indicated engine efficiency is 90% and the driven generator has 93% efficiency. Estimate the enthalpy and the temperature of the actual exhaust steam. Compute for the indicated power, mechanical efficiency, generator output, and the combine engine efficiency. Also solve for the ideal heat rate, indicated heat rate, brake heat rate, combine heat rate and the amount of steam delivered to the engine per hour.

A 60,000 kW steam engine operates at 8.OMPA and 540°C and expands at 0.0035 MPa. The
indicated engine efficiency is 90% and the driven generator has 93% efficiency. Estimate the
enthalpy and the temperature of the actual exhaust steam. Compute for the indicated power,
mechanical efficiency, generator output, and the combine engine efficiency. Also solve for the
ideal heat rate, indicated heat rate, brake heat rate, combine heat rate and the amount of
steam delivered to the engine per hour.
