    The document summarizes how to solve a problem involving an adiabatic steam turbine. It provides the inlet conditions of 5 kg/s of steam at 1.0 MPa and 400°C and exit conditions at 50 kPa and 100% quality. It then outlines calculating the power produced using the first law equation and calculating the exit area using the continuity equation. The power is calculated to be 3090kw and the exit area is calculated to be 0.0648 m^2.

    Chapter IV - PROPERTIES OF PURE SUBSTANCES

    Problem 4.33

    An adiabatic steam turbine receives 5 kg/s of steam at 1.0 MPa and 400°C and the
    steam exits at 50 kPa and 100% quality. Determine: (a) the power produced; (b)
    the exit area in m2 if the exit velocity is 250 m/s.

    Given: Adiabatic turbine expanding steam with specified inlet and exit conditions.

    Find: Power and exit area.

    Sketch & Given Data:

    Assumptions: 1) Steam is in equilibrium.

    2) Changes in kinetic and potential energy are negligible.

    Analysis: Find inlet enthalpy using Appendix A.7.

    h1 = 3263.9 kJ/kg

    Find exit enthalpy and specific volume using Appendix A.6.

    h2 = hg = 2645.9 kJ/kg
    (a) Writing first law equation for the open system.

    W = m(h1 -~) = (5kg/s)(3263.9kJ/kg-2645.9kJ/kg)


    = 3090kw

    (b) Using continuity equation.

    Ai = mv2 = (5kg/s)(3.2408m3/kg) = 0_0648 m3


    V (250m/s)

    4-52
