A steam power plant uses an ideal Rankine cycle. Superheated vapor enters the turbine at 8 MPa, 480C. The condenser pressure is 8 kPa. The net power output of the power plant is 100 MW. Find;
a) Temperature, pressure, specific volume, internal energy for each state in the cycle.
b) Sketch a detailed T-s diagram.
c) The rate of heat transfer in the generator, in kW.
d) The thermal efficiency
e) The mass flowrate of the condenser cooling water, in kg/hr if the cooling water enters the condenser at 15C and exits at 35C with negligible pressure change.
