Air is expanded isentropically in an adiabatic turbine, to produce 115 kW of power. If the mass flow rate is 0.75 kg/s, and the air at the exit is 500 K and 155 kPa, then what is the temperature and pressure at the inlet of the turbine?
(a) The temperature is? K
(b) The pressure is? kPa
NOTE: Do NOT approximate the air as having a constant specific heat.
