Consider a solar-pond power plant that operates on a simple


Consider a solar-pond power plant that operates on a simple ideal Rankine cycle with refrigerant-134a as the working fluid. The refrigerant enters the turbine as a saturated vapor at 1.6 MPa and leaves at 0.7 MPa. The mass flow rate of the refrigerant is 6 kg/s. Show the cycle on a T-s diagram with respect to the saturation lines and determine (a) the thermal efficiency and (b) the power output of the plant.
