A flywheel of moment of inertia $$9.8$$ kg m² fluctuates by $$30$$ rpm for a fluctuation in energy of $$1936$$ Jouls. The mean speed of the flywheel is (in rpm)

A Curtis stage, Rateau stage and a $$50$$% reaction stage in a steam turbine are examples of

A Rankine cycle operates between pressures of $$80$$ bar and $$0.1$$ bar. The maximum cycle temperature is $${600^ \circ }C.$$ If the steam turbine and condensate pump efficiencies are $$0.9$$ and $$0.8$$, respectively, calculate the specific work and thermal efficiency. Relevant steam table extract is given below:

The isentropic heat drop in the nozzle of an impulse steam turbine with a nozzle efficiency $$0.9,$$ blade velocity ratio $$0.5,$$ and mean blade velocity $$150$$ $$m/s$$ in $$kJ/kg$$ is
