Define the turbine efficiency compared to isentropic

Reference no: EM13553108

A steam turbine operates adiabatically and produces 4000 hp. steam enters at 300 psia and 900 F. the exhaust stream is saturated at 5 psia. what is the mass flow rate of steam in lb/min? what is the turbine efficiency (compared to isentropic operation)?
