Steam enters the high-pressure turbine of a steam power plant that operates on the ideal reheat Rankine cycle at 6MPaand 500Cand leaves as saturated vapor. Steam is then reheated to 450Cbefore it expands to a pressure of 10kPa. Heat is transferred to the steam in the boiler at a rate of 60000kW. Steam is cooled in the condenser by the cooling water from a nearby river, which enters the condenser at 8C. Show the cycle on a Tsdiagram with respect to saturation lines and determine (a)the pressure at which reheating takes place, (b)the net power output and thermal efficiency, and (c) the minimum mass flow rate of the cooling water required.
