A simple ideal Rankine cycle which uses water as the working kPa. The boiler produces a 10 MPa superheated steam at 450°C. The isentropic efficiency of the pump and turbine are 100% and 90% respectively. Calculate, (a) the heat supplied in the boiler. (b) the work produced by the turbine. (c) the quality of steam at turbine exit (d) the thermal efficiency of this cycle.
