An inventor claims to have designed a steam turbine that takes in 2.78lb/sec of steam at 725 psia and 1275 F . entering with a velocity of 33ft/s and exhaust steam at 15 psia at a height of 220ft. the inventor also claims that this adiabatic turbine generates 1000hp of work. Isthis device possible ideal or impossible if it od possible what is the isentropic efficiency of the turbine what is the diameter of the outlet pipe what is the volumetric flow rate at the exit in ft3/sec? show the process on a T-s diagram
