Find the power output from the turbine


Steam at 30 bar and 500°C enters a pass-out turbine at a rate of18000 kg h-1. The bulk of this steam is expanded isentropically to acondenser pressure of 0.03 bar, but 32% is bled from the turbine at apressure of 3 bar for process heating. If the condensate from the processheater is directly pumped back to the boiler, find:

(a) the power output from the turbine.

(b) the rate of process heating

(c) the efficiency of the plant.
