Question 3. High pressure steam (stream 1) at a rate of 2000 kg/h initially at 3.5 MPa and 350 °C is expanded in a turbine to obtain work. Two exit streams leave the turbine. Exiting stream 2 is a 1.5 MPa and 225 °C and flows at 100 kg/h. Exiting stream 3 is at 0.79 MPa and is known to contain a mixture of saturated vapor and liquid. A (negligible) fraction of stream 3 is bled through a throttle value to 0.10 MPa and is found to be 120 °C (stream 4). The measured output of the turbine is 100 kW. a) Determine the temperature and quality of stream 3. b) Determine the rate of heat transfer into or out of the turbine during its operation
