(A)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The work produced per kg of entering steam and the quality.

Concept Introduction:

Write the energy balance equation for an adiabatic steady state turbine.

W˙Sm˙=H^outH^in=H^out,revH^in

Here, rate of shaft work is W˙S, final reversible specific enthalpy is H^out,rev, mass flow rate is m˙, final specific enthalpy is H^out, and initial specific enthalpy is H^in.

Write the entropy balance equation.

d(MS^)dt=j=1j=Jm˙j,inS^jk=1k=Km˙k,outS^k+n=1n=NQ˙nTn+S˙gen

Here, time taken is t, mass of the system is M, specific entropy of the system is S^, mass flow rates of individual streams entering and leaving the system are m˙j,in and m˙k,out, specific entropies of streams entering and leaving the system are S^j and S^k, actual rate at which heat is added to or removed from the system at one particular location is Q˙n, the temperature of the system at the boundary where the heat transfer labeled n occurs is Tn, and the rate at which entropy is generated within the boundaries of the system is S˙gen.

Write the reversible quality (qrev) using entropy relation.

S^out,rev=(1qrev)S^L+qrevS^V

Here, entropy of liquid phase is S^L and entropy of vapor phase is S^V.

Write the final reversible specific enthalpy (H^out,rev).

H^out,rev=(1qrev)H^L+qrevH^V

Here, enthalpy of liquid phase is H^L and enthalpy of vapor phase is H^V.
