Question:
A steam power plant has 1200 F in the boiler, 630 Btu/s work out of the turbine, 900 Btu/s is taken out at 100 F in the condenser, and the pump work is 30 Btu/s. Find the plant’s thermal efficiency. Assuming the same pump work and heat transfer to the boiler, what is the turbine power if the plant is running in a Carnot cycle?

Step by Step Answer:
To find the plants thermal efficiency we need to first find the rate at which heat is transferred to the boiler We can do this by adding the rate at w...View the full answer
