A steam turbine is equipped to bleed 6 percent of the inlet steam for feedwater heating. It is operated with 500 psia and 6008F steam at the inlet, a bleed pressure of 100 psia, and an exhaust pressure of 5 psia. The turbine efficiency between the inlet and bleed point is 97 percent, and the efficiency between the bleed point and exhaust is 95 percent. Calculate this turbines second-law efficiency. Take T0 5 778F.
