Air expands through a turbine operating at steady state. At theinlet, p1 = 150 lbf/in.2,T1 = 1400°R, and at the exit,p2 = 14.8 lbf/in.2,T2 = 900°R. The mass flow rate of air enteringthe turbine is 5 lb/s, and 65,000 Btu/h of energy is rejected byheat transfer.

Neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine thepower developed, in hp.
