Question:

Water is the working fluid in an ideal Rankine cycle. Superheated vapor enters the turbine at 12 MPa and 500oC. The condenser pressure is 8 kPa. The turbine and the pump have isentropic efficiencies of 85% and 75%, respectively. Determine, for a flow of unit mass,
(a) The heat transfer into the working fluid as it passes through the boiler and
(b) The heat transfer from the condenser to the steam as it passes through the condenser.
(c) The thermal efficiency (ηth) of the cycle,
(d) The net power output
