Mechanical Engineering

Consider a steam power plant operating on a simple ideal Rankinecycle in which the steam enters the turbine at 3 MPa and 350C andis condensed in the condenser at 75 kPa. Determine the thermalefficiency of this cycle and sketch an appropriately labeled T-sdiagram. Also compare this thermal efficiency to that a Carnot heatengine operating between these same two limits.

The change in enthalpy across the pump = work done by the pump:h2-h1= v1(P2– P1)
