Steam flows steadily through an adiabatic turbine. The inlet conditions of the steam are 10 MPa, 450°C, and 80 m/s, and the exit conditions are 10 kPa, and 50 m/s. The mass flow rate of the steam is 12 kg/s. The power output of the turbine is 10.2 MW. Determine (a) the temperature of the water as it leaves the turbine, (b) the quality x of the water as it leaves the turbine, (c) the inlet and outlet cross-sectional area.
