Steam enters the first-stage turbine shown in Fig. 2 at 40 bar and 500°C with a volumetric flowrate of 90 m3/min. Steam exits the turbine at 20 bar and 400°C. The steam is then reheated atconstant pressure to 500°C before entering the second-stage turbine. Steam leaves the secondstage as saturated vapor at 0.6 bar. For operation at steady state, and ignoring stray heat transferin turbines and kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the(a) mass flow rate of the steam, in kg/h.(b) total power produced by the two stages of the turbine, in kW.(c) rate of heat transfer to the steam flowing through the reheater, in kW.Hint: divide the system into two control volumes to solve questions (b) and (c)
