Consider a 210 MW Steam Power Plant that operates on a simple ideal Rankine Cycle. Steam enters the turbine at 10 MPa and 500°C and is cooled in the condenser at a pressure of 10 kPa. Assuming an isentropic efficiency of 85% for both turbine and the pump. Determine: e. the heat added to the engine f. the heat rejected by the engine g. the Rankine engine efficiency h. the mass of the cooling water if the temperature difference between the input and output of the condenser is 12°C
