Steam with a flow rate of 65 kg/s enters an isentropic turbine at 12 MPa and exits

Question:

Steam with a flow rate of 65 kg/s enters an isentropic turbine at 12 MPa and exits at 70 kPa. Using your computer solution from Problem 8.87, vary the inflow temperature from 500° C to 650° C. Plot the turbine power as a function of the inflow temperature. Put temperature on the abscissa (x-axis) of the plot.


Problem 8.87

Solve Problem 8.86 using EES or other software.


Problem 8.86

Steam at 600° C and 12 MPa with a flow rate of 65 kg/s enters an isentropic turbine. What is the power output from the turbine if the outflow pressure is 70 kPa?
