With the usual assumptions of negligible potential and kinetic energy terms
together with steady, adiabatic operation, the power is found from
_ t5m
W _ wf ðh1 2 h2 Þ 5 m
_ wf ηt ðh1 2 h2s Þ ð8:1Þ
where ηt is the isentropic turbine efficiency, which is a known quantity. For a given
working fluid, the thermodynamic properties can easily be found from tables or corre-
lations for whatever design parameters are chosen. The desired turbine power output
will then determine the required working fluid mass flow rate.
