Water vapor at 1.0 MPa, 300°C enters a turbine operating at steady state and expands to 15 kPa. The work developed by the turbine is 630 kJ per kg of steam flowing through the turbine. Ignoring heat transfer with the surroundings and kinetic and potential energy effects, deter- mine (a) the isentropic turbine efficiency, (b) the rate of entropy gen- eration, in kJ/K per kg of steam flowing. Air at 40°F, 1 atm enters a compressor operating at steady state and exits at 620°F, 8.6 atm. Ignoring heat transfer with the surroundings and kinetic and potential energy effects, determine (a) the isentro- pic compressor efficiency and (b) the rate of entropy generation, in Btu/ºr per lb of air flowing. 2.7

a) isentropic efficiency = 84.905%

b) rate of entropy generation = .341 kj/(kg.k)

Explanation:

a) isentropic efficiency = 84.905%

b) rate of entropy generation = .341 kj/(kg.k)

The Isentropic efficiency of a turbine is a comparison of the actual power output with the Isentropic case.

Entropy can be defined as the thermodynamic quantity representing the unavailability of a system's thermal energy for conversion into mechanical work, often interpreted as the degree of disorder or randomness in the system.
