                      In equation 6.1, it was stated that the particular combination of properties of the form, u

                      +  Pv  is  called  specific  enthalpy  and  is  designated  as  h.  Thus,  the  steady  flow  energy

                      equation is written as

                      A turbine is a device which uses a pressure drop to produce work energy which is used to
                      drive an external load.
