An uninsulated steam turbine is to produce 6 MW of power from steam entering at a flow rate of 20 kg/s, a temperature of 400°C, and a pressure of 8 MPa while exiting as a saturated vapor at 3 MPa. The surface temperature of the turbine is maintained at 50°C. Calculate the entropy generation rate. Is this process possible? If not, what are some possible problems with this steam turbine concept?
