An ideal 500 MW steam power plant operates with an ideal Rankine
cycle. Steam leaves the boiler and enters the turbine at 2 MPa and
500 C. The condenser pressure is 10 kPa. (a) mass steam flow, kg/s
(b)turbine output, kW (c) pump work required, kW (d) heatrejected
in the condenser, kJ/s (e) heat added in the boiler, kJ/s (f)
amount of cooling water needed in the condenser if cooling water
temperature increased by 15°C, m³/s and GPM (g) thermal efficiency
of the cycle, %(35%)
