Answer» Steam enters a well insulated turbine and expands isentropically throughout. At an intermediate pressure, 20 percent of the mass is extracted for process heating and the remaining steam expands isentropically to 9 kPa.

Inlet to turbine; P = 14 MPa, T = 560oC, h = 3486 kJ/kg, s =6.6kJ/(kgK)

Intermediate state; h = 276kJ/kg

Exit of turbine: P =9 kPa,hf=174 kJ\kg.

hg=2574 kJ/kg, sf=0.6 kJ/(kgK)

sg=8.1 kJ(kgK)

If the flow rate of steam entering the turbine is 100 kg/s, then the work output (in MW) is
