Question
1. In the open-circuit steam plant, boiler feed water at atmospheric pressure and 30oC is pumped into an oil-fired boiler which produces dry-saturated steam at 10 bar. This steam enters a steam turbine and is expanded isentropic ally to atmospheric pressure ( 1 bar ) and freely discharged into the atmosphere.
 
Determine the:
 
a. Specific steam consumption
b. Thermal efficiency of the plant.
