1) High pressure steam is continuously sent through a power generating turbine to produce power. The entering steam is at T=600 C and P = 60 bar. The exiting steam is at P = 5 bar. The flow rate of steam through the turbine is 0.3 kg/sec.

Assuming the turbine is adiabatic and acting at max efficiency.

a) What thermodynamic variable of the steam is the same upstream and downstream of the turbine?

b) Find the temperature of the exiting steam

c) Find the power produced by the turbine.
