Question: Water is the working fluid in a Carnot vapor power cycle. Saturated liquid enters the boiler at a pressure of 1 1 MPa and saturated

Water is the working fluid in a Carnot vapor power cycle. Saturated liquid enters the boiler at a pressure of 11 MPa and saturated vapor enters the turbine. The condenser pressure is 8 kPa . Determine:
(a) the thermal efficiency.
\[
\eta=
\]
(b) the back work ratio.
bwr =
(c) the heat transfer to the working fluid per unit mass passing through the boiler, in \(\mathrm{kJ}/\mathbf{k g}\).
\[
\mathrm{Q}_{\mathrm{in}}=
\]
\(\mathrm{kJ}/\mathrm{kg}\)
(d) the heat transfer from the working fluid per unit mass passing through the condenser, in \(\mathrm{kJ}/\mathrm{kg}\).
Qout \(=\)
\(\mathrm{kJ}/\mathrm{kg}\)
