Steam enters an adiabatic turbine operating at steady state with an enthalpy of $$3251.0kJ/kg$$ and leaves as a saturated mixture at $$15$$ $$kPa$$ with quality (dryness fraction ) $$0.9.$$ The enthalpies of the saturated liquid and vapour at $$15$$ $$kPa$$ are $${h_f} = 225.94kJ/kg$$ and $${h_g} = 2598.3kJ/kg$$ respectively. The mass flow rate of steam is $$10kg/s.$$ Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible. The power output of the turbine in $$MW$$ is

The temperature and pressure of air in a large reservoir are $$400$$ $$K$$ and $$3$$ bar respectively. A converging diverging nozzle of exit area $$0.005{m^2}$$ is fitted to the wall of the reservoir as shown in the figure. The static pressure of air at the exit section for isentropic flow through the nozzle is $$50$$ $$kPa.$$ The characteristic gas constant and the ratio of specific heats of air are $$0.287$$ $$kJ/kgK$$ and $$1.4$$ respectively.
