Question:

Consider a 600-MW Rankine-cycle steam power plant. The boiler pressure is 1000 psia and the condenser pressure is 1 psia. The turbine inlet temperature is 1000 F. The condenser pressure is 1 psia and the pump inlet state is saturated liquid. The turbine isentropic efficiency is 0.90 and the pump efficiency is 0.85. Determine the thermal efficiency of the power plant.
