Mechanical Engineering

In an ideal Rankine cycle with reheat, superheated steam vaporenters the turbine at 10 MPa and
480 °C, while the condenser pressure is 6 kPa. Steam expandsthrough the first-stage turbine to
0.7 MPa and then is reheated to 480 °C
a) For a pressure of 7 bar right after the first stage turbine inthe ideal Rankine cycle, create
two plots: thermal efficiency as a function of the reheattemperature from 200 °C to
500 °C; and the net work, heat addition, and heat extraction on thesame graph as a
function of the reheat temperature from 200 °C to 500°C
