QUESTION:

Steam enters a steady-flow turbine with a mass flow rate of \(13 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{s}\) at \(600^{\circ} \mathrm{C}, 8 \mathrm{MPa}\), and a negligible velocity. The steam expands in the turbine to a saturated vapor at \(300 \mathrm{kPa}\) where 10 percent of the steam is removed for some other use. The remainder of the steam continues to expand to the turbine exit where the pressure is \(10 \mathrm{kPa}\) and quality is 85 percent. If the turbine is adiabatic, determine the rate of work done by the steam during this process.
