A geothermal powerplant consists of a flash chamber (basically a yalve) which decreases the pressure of the entering hot water. The saturated liquid-vapor mixture exiting to a separator which separates the liquid and vapor phases of the mixture. Water vapor exiting the separator is then sent to a steam turbine to produce shaft power. Assume that water enters the flash chamber as saturated liquid at T1 °C with a mass flow rate of M kg/s. The flash chamber reduces the pressure to 500 kPa. If water exits the turbine at 30 kPa and with a quality (x) of 0.1, calculate the power produced by the turbine.
