W_T = C_p*T₃*((P_r^((γ-1)/γ)-1)/(P_r^((γ-1)/γ)))
This formula uses 5 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.
Specific heat at constant pressure - (Measured in Joule per Kilogram per K) - Specific heat at constant pressure is the energy required to raise the temperature of the unit mass of a substance by one degree as the pressure is maintained constant.
Turbine Inlet Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Turbine Inlet Temperature refers to the temperature of the fluid entering a turbine, such as the hot gases from combustion in a gas turbine engine.
Turbine Pressure Ratio - Turbine Pressure Ratio refers to the ratio of the pressure at the turbine inlet to the pressure at the turbine outlet.
Heat Capacity Ratio - The Heat Capacity Ratio also known as the adiabatic index is the ratio of specific heats i.e. the ratio of the heat capacity at constant pressure to heat capacity at constant volume.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Specific heat at constant pressure: 1.248 Kilojoule per Kilogram per K --> 1248 Joule per Kilogram per K (Check conversion here)
Turbine Inlet Temperature: 1300 Kelvin --> 1300 Kelvin No Conversion Required
Turbine Pressure Ratio: 14.96 --> No Conversion Required
Heat Capacity Ratio: 1.4 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W_T = C_p*T₃*((P_r^((γ-1)/γ)-1)/(P_r^((γ-1)/γ))) --> 1248*1300*((14.96^((1.4-1)/1.4)-1)/(14.96^((1.4-1)/1.4)))

Evaluating ... ...

W_T = 873432.11385659

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

873432.11385659 Joule -->873.43211385659 Kilojoule (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

873.43211385659 ≈ 873.4321 Kilojoule <-- Turbine Work
