3. A 40 MW steam plant working on the Rankine cycle operates between boiler pressure of 4 MPa and condenser pressure of 10 KPa. The steam leaves the boiler and enters the steam turbine at 400°C. The isentropic n of the steam turbine is 85%. Determine a) The cycle n [6] b) The quality of steam from the turbine and [6] c) The steam flow rate in kg per hour. Consider pump work. [6]
