Chapter 10.9, Problem 125FEP

Consider a steady-flow Carnot cycle with water as the working fluid executed under the saturation dome between the pressure limits of 1 MPa and 10 kPa. Water changes from saturated liquid to saturated vapor during the heat addition process. The net work output of this cycle is

1. (a)   596 kJ/kg
2. (b)   666 kJ/kg
3. (c)   708 kJ/kg
4. (d)   822 kJ/kg
5. (e)   1500 kJ/kg
