Question:
Consider a 500-MW reheat-Rankine-cycle steam power plant. The boiler pressure is 8 MPa, the reheater pressure is 1 MPa, and the condenser pressure is 6 kPa. Both turbine inlet temperatures are 800 K. The water leaving the condenser is saturated liquid. Determine the thermal efficiency of the power plant and the boiler mass flow rate (kg/s). Assume isentropic turbines and pump.
