Steam is expanded from 20 bars, 280 C to 100kPa through an adiabatic, steady flow turbine whose isentropic efficiency is 90%. The turbine surroundings maintain their temperature at 27 C. How much entropy is generated by this process and does this process comply with the increased in entropy principle?
