A 300,000 lbm/hr steam flow enters a turbine of a power plant at 1000 F and 1000 psia. While passing through the turbine, 10% of the steam flow (30,000 lbm/hr) is extracted part way through the turbine. The remaining steam passes all the way through the turbine and exits as "wet" steam at 1.0 psia with a quality of 90%. Heat loss through the turbine casing amounts to 3.6 x 106 Btu/hr. The steam outlet from the turbine is at the same elevation as the inlet, and kinetic energy changes may be safely neglected. Using the First Law and assuming steady-state behavior, determine the shaft power delivered to the generator by the steam turbine.
