1. A steam powerplant operating on an ideal Rankine Cycle is operating at a boiler pressure of 5.75 MPa, steam enters the turbine at 500°C and expands to 147 kPa. If the powerplant is producing 5MW of energy find the following:
a. Enthalpies at each point of the cycle 1,2,3,B
b. Net work in kj/kg
c. Mass flow rate of throttle steam used by the powerplant
d. heat added in the boiler
e. heat rejected in the condenser
f. cycle thermal efficiency
