n open feedwater heater operates at steady state with liquid water entering inlet 1 at 10 bar, 50°C. A separate stream of steam
enters inlet 2 at 10 bar and 200°C with a mass flow rate of 16 kg/s. Saturated liquid at 10 bar exits the feedwater heater at exit 3. Ignoring heat trans-fer with the surroundings and neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the mass flow rate, in kg/s, of the steam at inlet

Answer:
power developed by the turbine = 6927.415 kW
Explanation:
given data
pressure = 4 MPa
specific enthalpy h1 = 3015.4 kJ/kg
velocity v1 = 10 m/s
pressure = 0.07 MPa
specific enthalpy h2 = 2431.7 kJ/kg
velocity v2 = 90 m/s
mass flow rate = 11.95 kg/s
solution
we apply here thermodynamic equation that
energy equation that is
put here value with
turbine is insulated so q = 0
so here
solve we get
w = 579700 J/kg = 579.7 kJ/kg
and
W = mass flow rate × w
W = 11.95 × 579.7
W = 6927.415 kW
power developed by the turbine = 6927.415 kW
