Question:

A new compound is used in an ideal Rankine cycle where saturated vapor at 400 F enters the turbine and saturated liquid at 70 F exits the condenser. The only properties known for this compound are a molecular mass of 80 lbm/lbmol, an ideal gas heat capacity of Cp = 0.20 Btu/lbm-R, and Tc =900 R, P=750 psia. Find the specific work input to the pump and the cycle thermal efficiency using the generalized charts.
