Question
A feed water heater is used to preheat water before it enters a boiler, as shown schematically
in Figure Q1. A mass flux of 30 kg/s flows through the system and, 7 kg/s is withdrawn
from the turbine for the feed water heater. Neglecting losses through the various pipes and
components determine
(a) the feed water heater outlet temperature,
(b) the boiler heat transfer rate,
(c) the turbine power output,
(d) the total pump power required,
(e) the energy rejected by the condenser,
(f) the cooling water mass flux, and
(g) the thermal efficiency of the cycle.
