Estimate the isentropic efficiency of the turbine


Solve the below problem:

Q: Steam enters a turbine at 300°C and exhausts at 20 kPa. It is estimated that the isentropic efficiency of the turbine is 70%. What is the maximum turbine inlet pressure if the exhaust is not to be in the two-phase region? You should include all the units which are needed to accomplish the problem.Your calculation and the steps must be clear and understandable.
