Do Problem 9.151E with R-410a as the working fluid and with the boiler exit at 160 F, 600 psia.
Problem 9.151E
A supply of geothermal hot water is to be used as the energy source in an ideal Rankine cycle, with R-134a as the cycle working fluid. Saturated vapor R-134a leaves the boiler at a temperature of 180 F, and the condenser temperature is 100 F. Calculate the thermal efficiency of this cycle.
