Consider a steam power plant that operates on a reheat Rankine cycle. Steam enters the high pressure turbine at 9 MPa, 600oC and leaves as a saturated vapor. The steam is then reheated to 500oC before entering the low pressure turbine, and is condensed in a condenser at 7 kPa. The mass flow rate is 150 kg/s. Determine
(a) The rate of heat transfer to the working fluid in the reheat process and
(b) The net power developed,
(c) The thermal efficiency (ηth).
