In a turbine, there is 150 m of steam entering at the top from its outlet. It enters at 5MPa, 450°C with an enthalpy of 4000 kJ/kg and it leaves at 20 KPa and an enthalpy of 2000 kJ/kg. The initial velocity is mostly negligible and the final velocity is 150 m/s. Heat is absorbed by the turbine while it passes at a rate of 60 MW. If the mass flowrate is 10kg/s, how much is the power produced by the turbine?

Question
In a turbine, there is 150 m of steam entering at the top from its outlet. It enters at 5MPa, 450°C with an enthalpy of 4000 kJ/kg and it leaves at 20 KPa and an enthalpy of 2000 kJ/kg. The initial velocity is mostly negligible and the final velocity is 150 m/s. Heat is absorbed by the turbine while it
passes at a rate of 60 MW. If the mass flowrate is 10kg/s, how much is the
power produced by the turbine?
