Water is the working fluid in an ideal Rankine cycle. Saturated vapor enters the turbine at 12 MPa, and the
condenser pressure is 8 kPa. The mass flow rate of steam entering the turbine is 50 kg/s.
Determine:
(a) the net power developed, in kW.
(b) the rate of heat transfer to the steam passing through the boiler, in kW.
(c) the percent thermal efficiency.
(d) the mass flow rate of condenser cooling water, in kg/s, if the cooling water undergoes a temperature
increase of 18°C with negligible pressure change in passing through the condenser.
