Reconsider Prob. 8–121. Using EES (or other) software, investigate the effect of the state of the steam at the inlet of the feedwater heater on the ratio of mass flow rates and the reversible power. Assume the entropy of the extracted steam is constant at the value for 1 MPa, 200°C and decrease the extracted steam pressure from 1 MPa to 100 kPa. Plot both the ratio of the mass flow rates of the extracted steam and the feedwater heater and the reversible work for this process per unit mass of feedwater as functions of the extraction pressure.
