(e) The steam from a boiler enters a turbine with a velocity of 88 m/s and after expansion in the turbine leaves at a velocity 450 m/s. The steam specific enthalpy change across the turbine is 550 kJ/kg. The steam inlet pipe is 2 m above the exhaust pipe. The steam flow rate through the turbine is 1.6 kg/s. Estimate the power delivered by the turbine. Assuming the heat loss from the casing to be negligible. (6 marks)
