↑ Air compressor An adiabatic steam turbine is used to drive an adiabatic air compressor and supply power to a nearby generator. Steam enters the turbine at a rate of 1.5 kg/s at 500° C and 1 MPa and leaves the turbine at 500 kPa with a quality of 0.93. Air enters the compressor at a rate of 0.8 m³/s at 110 kPa and 300K and leaves at 400 kPa and 540K. Steam turbine What is the power that must be supplied to the air compressor? KW What is the net power that is supplied to the generator? KW
