Analyzing Rankine Cycles

Water is the working fluid in a Carnot vapor power cycle. Saturated liquid enters the boiler at a pressure of 10 MPa, and saturated vapor enters the turbine. The condenser pressure is 6 kPa. Determine

(a) the thermal efficiency.


(b) the back work ratio.


(c) the heat transfer to the working fluid per unit mass passing through the boiler, in kJ/kg.


(d) the heat transfer from the working fluid per unit mass passing through the condenser, in kJ/kg.
