QUESTION:

Water vapor at \(1000^{\circ} \mathrm{F}, \ 140 \mathrm{\ lbf} / \mathrm{in} .^{2}\) enters a turbine operating at steady state and expands to \(2 \mathrm{\ lbf} / \mathrm{in} .^{2}\) The mass flow rate is 4 lb/s and the power developed is 1600 Btu/s. Stray heat transfer and kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. Determine the isentropic turbine efficiency.
