Question
Problem 4 An air compressor is to be powered by a direct-coupled steam turbine (as shown in the figure below) that is also driving a generator. Steam enters the turbine at 13 MPa and 500 C at a rate of 20 kg/s and exits at 15 kPa and a quality of 0.85. Air enters the compressor at 98 kPa and 295 K at a rate of 7 kg/s and exits at 1 MPa and 600 K. Calculate the net power delivered to the generator.
