A stem power plant operates with high pressure of 5.5 MPa, and has boiler exit temperature of 450 °C. The condenser is at a temperature of 45 °C. All the components are ideal except for the turbine, which has an exit state quality x=97%. Determine: (a) The efficiency of the turbine (b) The heat transfer in the condenser (kg/kg) (c) The heat transfer in the boiler (ki/kg)
