For the ideal regenerative Rankine cycle shown in Fig. 8.38, steam leaves the steam generator at 2000

Question:

For the ideal regenerative Rankine cycle shown in Fig. 8.38, steam leaves the steam generator at 2000 psia and 900 8 F, with a mass flux of 30 lbm/s. Steam at 400 psia is removed from the turbine and directed to a closed feedwater heater. The remaining steam leaves the turbine at 5 psia. Sketch the cycle on a T-s diagram and determine:
i) The heat flow rate into the steam generator
ii) The mass flow rate diverted to the feedwater heater.
iii) The net power output of the turbine
iv) The cycle efficiency
