Problem 5-Irreversible Power cycle A simple power plant cycle has saturated liquid water from a condenser at 100 kPa pumped into a boiler operating at 1.0 MPa. The steam leaves the boiler at 350 °C and is expanded through a turbine with the exit stream having a quality between 0 and 1. If the turbine is 80% efficient and the pump is 90% efficient in this Rankine cycle, what is the overall efficiency of the power cycle?

Water is the working fluid in a Rankine cycle. Superheated vapor enters the turbine at 10 Mpa, 560 C with a mass flow rate of 7.8kg/s and exits at 8 kPa. Saturated liquid enters the pump at 8 kPa. The isentropic turbine efficiency is 85%, and the isentropic pump efficiency is 85%. Cooling water enters the adiabatic condenser at 18 C and exits at 36 C with no significant change in pressure and assuming the specific heat of the cooling...
