I want to know how this four pressures and enthalpies are selcected

8.6. A steam power plant employs two adiabatic turbines in series. Steam enters the first
turbine at 650°C and 7000 kPa and discharges from the second turbine at 20 kPa. The
system is designed for equal power outputs from the two turbines, based on a turbine
efficiency of 78% for each turbine. Determine the temperature and pressure of the
steam in its intermediate state between the two turbines. What is the overall efficiency
of the two turbines together with respect to isentropic expansion of the steam from the
initial to the final state?
A steam power plant employs two adiabatic turbines in series. Steam enters the first turbine at 650
and 7,000 kPa and discharges from the second turbine at 20 kPa. The system is designed for equal
power outputs from the two turbines, based on a turbine efficiency of 78% for each turbine.
Given the initial temperature and pressure to be T₁ = 923.15K, P₁ = 7000kPa
H₁ = 3766.38kJ/kg
Hence from steam tables,
S₁ = 7.22kJ/kgK
At 20 kPa, the values for saturated liquid and vapour are as follows:
Hlig = 251.45kJ/kg, Hvap = 2609.9kJ/kg
Sliq=0.832kJ/kgK, Svap = 7.909kJ/kgK
The four values of pressure and the corresponding enthalpies are as follows:

3023.9
3032.5

The actual enthalpy and entropy are hence
-579.15 +3766.4
-572.442 +3766.4
-556.89 +3766.4
