As team turbine is equipped to bleed 6 percent of the inlet steam for feed water heating. It is operated with 4 MPa and 350°C steam at the inlet, a bleed pressure of 800 kPa, and an exhaust pressure of 30 kPa. Calculate the work produced by this turbine when the isentropic efficiency between the inlet and bleed point is 97 percent and the isentropic efficiency between the bleed point and exhaust is 95 percent. What is the overall isentropic efficiency of the turbine? Hint: Treat this turbine as two separate turbines, with one operating between the inlet and bleed conditions and the other operating between the bleed and exhaust conditions.
