Problem Statement A Rankine cycle with a closed feedwater heater operates with a steam generator pressure of 140 bar, a condenser pressure of 6 kPa, and extracts 14% of the steam flow at 30 bar. The extracted steam leaves the feedwater heater as a saturated liquid. The steam generator exit is superheated by 200°C. The turbines have an isentropic efficiency of 90% and the pump is isentropic. The condenser exit is a saturated liquid. Determine the thermal efficiency of the cycle.

A Rankine cycle with a closed feedwater heater operates with a steam generator pressure of
140 bar, a condenser pressure of 6 kPa, and extracts 14% of the steam flow at 30 bar. The
extracted steam leaves the feedwater heater as a saturated liquid. The steam generator exit
is superheated by 200°C. The turbines have an isentropic efficiency of 90% and the pump
is isentropic. The condenser exit is a saturated liquid. Determine the thermal efficiency of
the cycle.
