Superheated steam at 18 MPa, 560°C, enters the turbine of a vapor power plant. The
pressure at the exit of the turbine is 0.06 bar, and saturated liquid leaves the condenser at 0.06
bar. The pressure is then increased by a pump to the boiler pressure at 18 MPa. The turbine and
pump efficiencies are 82 and 77%, respectively. For the cycle, determine
(a) The net-work per unit mass of steam flow, in kJ/kg
(b) Heat transfer to steam passing through the boiler, in kJ/kg
(c) The thermal efficiency of the cycle
(d) Heat transfer to cooling water passing through the condenser, in kJ/kg.
(e) Draw complete T-s diagram
