Abstract

The nozzles of a steam turbine receive steam at 3 bar and 150 °C with negligible velocity. The steam expands adiabatically through the nozzles and leaves at 1 bar with a dryness fraction of 0.96. Calculate

  1. (a)

    the exit velocity,

  2. (b)

    the total exit area for a mass flow rate of 10 kg/s.
