Steam at 4 MPa and 350°C is expanded in an adiabatic turbine to 125kPa. What is the isentropic efficiency (percent) of this turbine if the steam is exhausted as a saturated vapor?

Explanation:

First, we will find actual properties at given inlet and outlet states by the use of steam tables:

AT INLET:

At 4MPa and 350°C, from the superheated table:

h₁ = 3093.3 KJ/kg

s₁ = 6.5843 KJ/kg.K

AT OUTLET:

At P₂ = 125 KPa and steam is saturated in  vapor state:

h₂ = = 2684.9 KJ/kg

Now, for the isentropic enthalpy, we have:

P₂ = 125 KPa and s₂ = s₁ = 6.5843 KJ/kg.K

Since s₂ is less than and greater than at 125 KPa. Therefore, the steam is in a saturated mixture state. So:

Now, we will find (enthalpy at the outlet for the isentropic process):

Now, the isentropic efficiency of the turbine can be given as follows:
