1. A turbine operating with an isentropic efficiency of 60% is supplied steam at 40 bar and 450°C and exhausts at 4 bar. To produce 1 MW of power, it requires a steam flowrate of 2.9 kg/s. The exhaust steam temperature is 2755.7°C.
2. A turbine operating at 80% efficiency is supplied 90 tonnes/hr of steam at 80 bar and 450°C and exhausts at 2.5 bar. The exhaust is a mixture of saturated vapor and liquid at 0.9086 quality. The ideal exhaust enthalpy is 2517.5 kJ/kg and the actual power output is 15090 kW.

1. A turbine is supplied with steam at 40bar and 450
o C, and exhausts at 4bar. If the machine operates with an isentropic efficiency of 60%, determine the steam flowrate is required to produce a power output of 1MW and the exhaust steam temperature.
Solution: At 40bar, 450 o C, 1 3330 h = kJ/kg and 1 6.935 s = kJ/kg K
At 4bar (for saturated conditions), 2730 g h = kJ/kg and 605 f h = kJ/kg 6.897 g s = kJ/kg K and 1.776 f s = kJ/kg K
Assume isentropic expansion, 2 1 ' 6.935 s s = = kJ/kg K

If the isentropic efficiency of the turbine is 80% and the exhaust steam is at 2.5bar, determine the condition of the exhaust and power output. Why is the quality of the exhaust steam lower for the reversible turbine than that for a real turbine?

At 4bar (for saturated conditions), 2717 g h = kJ/kg and 535 f h = kJ/kg 7.053 g s = kJ/kg K and 1.607 f s = kJ/kg K

In conclusion, SA SI W W < , less power is produced, this is due to lesser steam is condense during expansion for the ideal cases.
