What is the power output of an adiabatic turbine with given parameters?

Click For Summary
To calculate the power output of an adiabatic turbine with the given parameters (P1=1MPa, P2=100kPa, mass flow rate of 10 kg/s), the relevant equation involves the enthalpy difference between the inlet and outlet states. Enthalpy values can be sourced from steam tables based on the specified pressures. The discussion emphasizes the importance of using the correct enthalpy values to determine the turbine's efficiency and power generation. Participants suggest referencing Wikipedia for the necessary equations and further details on the calculations. Accurate calculations will yield the turbine's power output based on the provided steam conditions.

An adiabatic turbine ,steam saturated vapour
P1=1MPa P2= 100kPa. Mass flow rate is 10kgs-1 of steam.

i need to work out how much power is produced

help :(
