Entropy
For a closed thermodynamic system, a quantitative measure of the amount of thermal energy not available to do work. A measure of the disorder or randomness in a closed system
Enthalphy
Enthalpy is a measure of the total energy of a thermodynamic system. It includes the internal energy, which is the energy required to create a system, and the amount of energy required to make room for it by displacing its environment and establishing its volume and pressure (SI Joule). The total enthalpy, H, of a system cannot be measured directly. Thus, change in enthalpy, H, is a more useful quantity than its absolute value.
Enthalphy(H)
H is the sum of the E of the system + the product of the P the gas in the system and its V

After a series of rearrangements, and if pressure if kept constant, we can arrive at the following equation:
where H is the Hfinal minus Hinitial and q is heat
H = U + PV

Process 2-3: The high pressure liquid enters a boiler where it is heated at constant pressure by an external heat source to become a dry saturated vapour. The input energy required can be easily calculated using Mollier dia or h-s chart or enthalpy - entropy chart also known as steam tables.
Process 3-4: The dry saturated vapor expands through a turbine, generating power. This decreases the temperature and pressure of the vapour, and some condensation may occur. The output in this process can be easily calculated using the Enthalpy entropy chart or the steam tables. Process 4-1: The wet vapour then enters a condenser where it is condensed at a constant pressure to become a saturated liquid.
