Chapter 8.8, Problem 103RP

Steam at 7 MPa and 400°C enters a two-stage adiabatic turbine at a rate of 15 kg/s. Ten percent of the steam is extracted at the end of the first stage at a pressure of 1.8 MPa for other use. The remainder of the steam is further expanded in the second stage and leaves the turbine at 10 kPa. If the turbine has an isentropic efficiency of 88 percent, determine the wasted power potential during this process as a result of irreversibilities. Assume the surroundings to be at 25°C.

Steam at 7 MPa and 400°C enters a two-stage adiabatic turbine at a rate of 15 kg/s. Ten percent of the steam is extracted at the end of the first stage at a pressure of 1.8 MPa for other use. The remainder of the steam is further expanded in the second stage and leaves the turbine at 10 kPa. If the turbine has an isentropic efficiency of 88 percent, determine the wasted power potential during this process as a result of irreversibilities. Assume the surroundings to be at 25°C.
A steam turbine operates adiabatically at a power level of 3,500 kW. Steam enters the turbine at 2,400 kPa and 500°C and exhausts from the turbine as saturated vapor at 20 kPa. What is the steam rate through the turbine, and what is the turbine efficiency?
Superheated steam enters the first stage of a steam turbine at 2.5 MPa and 300°C. the steam leaves the first stage at a pressure of 500 kPa and returns to the steam generator, which leaves at a temperature of 300 ºC and re-enters the second stage of the turbine, which finally leaves at 10kPa. Evaluate the efficiency of the cycle and the quality of the steam at the outlet of the two stages of the turbine.
