Question
**Steam Turbine Analysis**

In this scenario, a steam turbine receives steam from two separate boilers with the following parameters:

- **First Flow:**
  - Mass Flow Rate: 10 kg/s
  - Pressure: 6 MPa (60 bar)
  - Temperature: 600°C

- **Second Flow:**
  - Mass Flow Rate: 17 kg/s
  - Pressure: 1500 kPa (15 bar)
  - Temperature: 400°C

- **Exit Flow:**
  - Pressure: 100 kPa (1 bar)
  - Steam Quality: 85%

**Objective:**
Determine the power output of this turbine in kilowatts (kW).

This setup involves calculating the power generated by the turbine based on the given mass flow rates, pressures, temperatures, and steam quality. Understanding these parameters and their relationships is critical for accurately determining the turbine's efficiency and power output.

Expert Solution
Check Mark
Step 1: Given

Exit condition of first boiler

P1= 6MPa and T1 = 600 0C, m1 = 10 kg/s

Exit condition of second boiler

P2 = 1500 kPa and T2 = 400 0C, m2 = 17 kg/s

Exit condition of turbine,

Pe = 100 kPa, x = 85% =0.85
