Thermodynamics A steam power plant operates with high pressure oft 4 MPa and hasleel receiving heat from a 700°C reservoir. The ambient air at 20°C provides cooling to maintain the water/vapor mixture in the condenser at 60°C. All components are ideal i.e., reversible) except the turbine which has an efficiency 92% of a reversible, isentropic process. Other than the irreversibility of the turbine, the power plant can be considered as a Rankine cycle. Determine the following quantities in the suggested...
