44.) Steam enters a turbine stage with an enthalpy of 3628 kJ/kg at 70 m/s
and leaves the same stage with an enthalpy of 2846 kJ/kg and a
velocity of 124 m/s. Calculate the work done by the steam.
For Steady Flow Process; No heat transfer q = 0 and Δpe = 0

ΣEin = ΣEout
h1 + ke1 = h2 + ke2 + w
h1 + υ12 / 2k = h2 + υ22 / 2k + w
w = h1 – h2 + (υ12 – υ22) / 2 k
