An ideal gas mixture, consisting (by mass) of 15% CH4, 40% N2, and 35% Ar, enters an insulated turbine at a pressure of 170 psia, a temperature of 1000°F, and a volumetric flow rate of 10 ft3/s. The mixture exits the turbine at 20 psia. Assuming constant specific heats for the mixture, determine the power produced and the exit temperature if (a) the process is isentropic, and (b) the isentropic efficiency of the turbine is 0.77.
