8-71 Steam expands in a turbine steadily at a rate of 15,000 kg/h, entering at 8 MPa and 450°C and leaving at 50 kPa as saturated vapor. Assuming the surroundings to be at 100 kPa and 25°C, determine
a) the power potential of the steam at the inlet conditions and
b) the power output of the turbine if there were no irreversibilities present.
