STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Turbine Work = Turbine Inlet Enthalpy-Turbine Exit Enthalpy
WT = h3-h4
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Turbine Work - (Measured in Joule) - Turbine Work represents the work done by a turbine in converting the thermal energy of a fluid into mechanical energy.
Turbine Inlet Enthalpy - (Measured in Joule) - Turbine Inlet Enthalpy is the total energy per unit mass of the fluid entering a turbine.
Turbine Exit Enthalpy - (Measured in Joule) - Turbine Exit Enthalpy is the energy of the gases after expanding through the turbine.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Turbine Inlet Enthalpy: 1622 Kilojoule --> 1622000 Joule (Check conversion here)
Turbine Exit Enthalpy: 748.8 Kilojoule --> 748800 Joule (Check conversion here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
WT = h3-h4 --> 1622000-748800
Evaluating ... ...
WT = 873200
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
873200 Joule -->873.2 Kilojoule (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
873.2 Kilojoule <-- Turbine Work
