1. A steam power plant operates with a high pressure of 4 MPa and has a boiler exit of 600?C receiving heat from a 750?C source. The ambient at 20?C provides cooling to maintain the condenser at 60?C. All components are ideal except for the turbine, which has an isentropic efficiency of 92%. Find the ideal and actual turbine exit qualities. Find the actual specific work and specific heat transfer in all four components.
2. For the previous problem, also find the specific entropy generation in the boiler heat source setup.
