A steam power plant has a high pressure of 5 MPa and maintains 50C in the condenser.

Question:

A steam power plant has a high pressure of 5 MPa and maintains 50°C in the condenser. The boiler exit temperature is 600°C. All the components are ideal except the turbine which has an actual exit state of saturated vapor at 50°C. Find the cycle efficiency with the actual turbine and the turbine isentropic efficiency.
