Question:

Consider a 50-MW Rankine-cycle steam power plant. The steam enters the turbine at 1000 F and 1200 psia and leaves at 1 psia with a quality of 0.90. Water leaves the condenser at 80 F and 1 psia. The power supplied to the pump may be neglected. Determine the thermal efficiency for the power plant and the mass flow rate (Mlbm/hr) of steam in the boiler.
