Question 1: Superheated steam enters a turbine at 7 MPa, 550°C, and exits at 150kPa. a) Draw the system. b) If the process is reversible adiabatic (isentropic), find the final temperature (T2s), the final enthalpy (h2s) of the steam, and do the energy balance to calculate the turbine work (Ws). c) Using entropy balance, show that Sgen for the above process is 0. d) If the isentropic efficiency is 85%, find the actual final temperature (T2a) and calculate Sgen? e) Plot process (b) and (d) on a Ts diagram with proper labelling.

Question 1:
Superheated steam enters a turbine at 7 MPa, 550°C, and exits at 150kPa.
a) Draw the system.
b) If the process is reversible adiabatic (isentropic), find the final
temperature (T2s), the final enthalpy (h2s) of the steam, and do the
energy balance to calculate the turbine work (Wt,s).
c) Using entropy balance, show that Sgen for the above process is 0.
d) If the isentropic efficiency is 85%, find the actual final temperature (T2a)
and calculate Sgen?
e) Plot process (b) and (d) on a Ts diagram with proper labelling.
