Consider a steam power plant that operates on a reheat Rankinecycle and has a net power output of 80 MW. Steam enters thehigh-pressure turbine at 10 MPa and 500°C and the low-pressureturbine at 1 MPa and 500°C. Steam leaves the condenser as asaturated liquid at a pressure of 10 kPa. The isentropic efficiencyof the turbine is 76 percent and that of the pump is 95percent.
A: Determine the quality (or temperature, if superheated) of thesteam at the turbine exit.
B: The thermal efficiency of the cycle.
C: The mass flow rate of the steam
