Consider a steam power plant operating on the simple ideal Rankine cycle. Steam enters the turbine at 20 bar at 400°C and is condensed in the condenser at a pressure of 50 kpa. Determine per kg of steam (i) the heat supplied to the boiler (ii) the rejected from the condenser (iii). the pump work (iv) the turbine work (v) the thermal efficiency of the cycle. Also, draw the T-s diagram. (Use the steam table and Mollier-chart)
