b. Work ratio
c. Specific steam consumption.
Q-2).steam issues from the nozzle of the de laval turbine with
velocity of 1200m/s.the nozzle angle is 20 •.the mean blade velocity is
400 m/s and inlet and outlet angle of blade are equal.the mass of
steam flowing through turbine per hour is 900kg. calculate-

i).Blade angles
ii).relative velocity of steam entering the blades.
iii).tangential forces on the blades.
iv).power developed
v).blade efficiency.

Assume that k=0.8

Q-3). In an oil fired gas turbine plant , air enters at 100kN/m 2 and
27•c and compressed to 450kN/m2. The maximum cycle temperature
is 600•c. the isentropic efficiencies of the compressor and turbine are
85% and 86% respectively.the calorific value of oil used is 42,000
KJ/Kg. the air flow rate is 2 kg/s. calculate-
