A single electron transistor consisting of a superconducting island coupled to two normal leads is investigated. By periodically changing the gate voltage this setup works as a single electron pump. However during the turnstile operation quasiparticles are injected onto the superconductor, which relax via inelastic electron-phonon scattering and effectively heat up the island. We theoretically model the time evolution of the charge transport and the quasiparticle distribution during the pumping process. By analyzing the dependence on pumping frequency we discuss the experimental ability to measure the relaxation dynamics of quasiparticles in the superconducting island.
