A schematic of a steam power plant is shown in the figure. The boiler volume is 50 liter and contains 90% liquid and 10% steam at 100kPa. The boiler is heated and when the pressure at the boiler reaches 700kPa, the pressure valve is switched on to maintain a constant pressure of 700kPa. At this pressure, saturated steam moves to an adiabatic turbine. The saturated steam leaves the turbine at 100kPa to the atmosphere. When all the liquid at the boiler evaporator, the heating stops automatically. Calculate the amount of work obtained by the turbine and the amount of heat to be provided to the boiler over one cycle.
