Considering that the change in enthalpy at the first stage of a Reheat Rankine Cycle is 1050 kJ/kg and 850 BTU/lb was recorded in the second stage, calculate for the thermal efficiency (in percent) of the cycle if both stages has a 93% efficiency and having a heat added of 9000 kJ/kg. (Hint: Neglect the pump work)

Question

Considering that the change in enthalpy at the first stage of a Reheat Rankine Cycle is 1050 kJ/kg and 850 BTU/lb was recorded in the second stage, calculate for the thermal efficiency (in percent) of the cycle if both stages has a 93% efficiency and having a heat added of 9000 kJ/kg. (Hint: Neglect the pump work) 

 

Use these values when necessary:
