Steam enters a turbine at a rate of 550 kg/hr. The steam enters the turbine at 28 atm and 350°C at a linear velocity of 55 m/s. The steam leaves the turbine at a point 3.5 m below the turbine inlet at atmospheric pressure and a velocity of 355 m/s. The turbine delivers shaft work at a rate of 50 kW, and the heat loss from the turbine is estimated to be 2250 kcal/hr.

What is the temperature of the exiting stream?

Additionally, if you can, what is the diameter of the exit pipe?
