Also determine the rotational speed of the rotor
Steam enters a turbine 80 lb of steam per minute with an enthalpy of 2171 BTU/lb and velocity of 125 fps. It leaves the turbine at 1520 BTU/lb at 589 fps. The heat loss is 90,000 BTU/hr. Find the horsepower output of the turbine.
By passing thru a turbine radius of 50meters, the KE of the air is transformed to work. To produce 1500 kW of power, what should be the air's velocity? use density of air.
