In a reaction turbine, the drum diameter is 2.15 m, speed of turbine is 750 rev/min and the steam flow is 14.2 kg/sec. At a particular ring of blades, the blade height is 15.875 cm and the discharge angle (α & ϕ) is 25°. Here, the pressure of steam is 0.04 N/mm2 abs, and its dryness fraction is 0.97. Determine the following: 1. Power developed, in kW, by the particular ring. 2. Heat drop, in kJ, through this turbine pair, assuming turbine efficiency of 80%
