Answer:
Power = 371.28 kW
Explanation:
Initial pressure, P1 = 5 bar
Final pressure, P2 = 1 bar
Initial temperature, T1 = 320°C
Final temperature, T2 = 160°C
Volume flow rate, V = 0.65m³/s
From steam tables at state 1,
h1 = 3105.6 kJ/kg, s1 = 7.5308 kJ/kgK
v1 = 0.5416 m³/kg
Mass flow rate, m = V/v1
m = 1.2 kg/s
From steam tables, at state 2
h2 = 2796.2 kJ/kg, s2 = 7.6597 kJ/kgK
Power developed, P = m(h1 - h2)
P = 1.2(3105.6-2796.2)
P = 371.28 kW
