Steam enters a turbine at 2.00 MPa and 700.°C and exits the turbine at 0.200 MPa and 400.°C. The process is steady flow, steady state, and adiabatic.
Using saturated liquid water at 20.0°C as the local environment (ground state), determine the following items on the basis of a steam flow rate of 6.30 kg/s:
a. The irreversibility rate of the turbine.
b. The turbine's entrance and exit specific flow availabilities.
c. The turbine's actual output power.
