3. In part of a power plant, saturated water at 100kPa enters a pump and its pressure is raised to 10MPa. The water then enters a boiler (heat exchanger) and is heated to a temperature of 480C at the same pressure of 10MPa. Determine the work input needed to run the pump and the heat transfer to the water in the boiler, both in kJ/kg of the water passing through. The system operates in steady state. Kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. The pump works ideally (isentropic.) (Hint: Use the provided A-5 compressed liquid table if needed.) Answers: Work =10.38kJ/kg and Heat transfer =2893.56kJ/kg
