Power generation using steam is one of the most common method which can be found around the world. In these type of power plants, steam goes through a basic thermodynamic cycle called Rankine cycle which is shown in the following figure. Steam flow Boiler Qin Pump Wout Win Condenser For the proper operation of the cycle, water should be pumped to the boiler using pump which required work input (Wn) to the cycle. Heat energy should be supplied to the boiler (Qin) to generate steam and then high pressure steam is fed to the turbine. By extracting the energy from high pressure steam, turbine is producing work output (Wout)- Because of this, the steam pressure is reduced and low pressure steam is flowing into the condenser. Condenser removes heat energy from steam further (Qout) and steam is converted into liquid water. The liquid water can be pumped into the boiler again and the cycle continues. Performance of a Ranking cycle can be evaluated by using thermal efficiency (neh)which is…
