Mechanical Engineering

Water is the working fluid in an ideal Rankine cycle. Saturatedvapor enters the turbine at 16 MPa, and the condenser pressure is 8kPa. The mass flow rate of steam entering the turbine is 50kg/s.


Determine:

(a) the net power developed, in kW.

(b) the rate of heat transfer to the steam passing through theboiler, in kW.

(c) the percent thermal efficiency.

(d) the mass flow rate of condenser cooling water, in kg/s, if thecooling water undergoes a temperature increase of 18°C withnegligible pressure change in passing through the condenser.
