Air enters the compressor at 98 kpa and 295 k at a rate of


An adiabatic air compressor is to be powered by a direct coupled adiabatic steam turbine that is also driving a generator. Steam enters the turbine at 12.5 MPa and 500oC at a rate of 25 kg/s and exits at 10 kPa and a quality of 0.92. Air enters the compressor at 98 kPa and 295 K at a rate of 10 kg/s and exits at 1 MPa and 620 K. Determine the net power delivered to the generator by the turbine.

For air, take the specific heat at constant pressure as 1.005 kJ/kg.K
