Question: Problem 2 Superheated steam at 7 8 0 K and 3 MPa enters a steady - state turbine with a mis flow rate of

Problem 2
Superheated steam at 780 K and 3 MPa enters a steady-state turbine with a mis flow rate of \(500\mathrm{~kg}/\mathrm{s}\). The steam leaves the turbine at 560 K and 0.7 MPa . The turbine is not well insulated, resulting in a heat-transfer rate of 660 kW to the atmosphere,
a) Determine the power delivered by the turbine in MW.
b) Determine the ratio of the heat loss rate to the shaf power expressed as a percentage,
c) Solve the problem again, including the kinetic energies associated with the inlet and exit streams, where \( V_{1}=85\mathrm{~m}/\mathrm{s}\) and \(\mathrm{V}_{2}=25\mathrm{~m}/\mathrm{s}\). Determine the percentages of the shaf power represented by the kinetic energy rates at the inlet and outlet, respectively
