Question:

During the operation of a steam power plant, steam enters the turbine with a flow rate of 230,000 kg/hr at 3.5 MPa and 550° C. The turbine exhaust (condenser inlet) condition is 0.01 MPa with 85% quality. The steam (water) exits the condenser as a saturated liquid at 0.01 MPa. Determine 

(a) The turbine output in kW 

(b) The condenser heat-rejection rate in kJ/hr. Use the NIST software to obtain fluid properties.
