Superheated steam at 8 MPa and 480°C leaves the steam generator of a vapor power plant. Heat transfer and frictional effects in the line connecting the steam generator and the turbine reduce the pressure and temperature at the turbine inlet to 7.7 MPa and 440°C, respectively. The pressure at the exit of the turbine is 10 kPa, and the turbine operates adiabatically. Liquid leaves the condenser at 8 kPa, 36°C. The pressure is increased to 8.6 MPa across the pump. The turbine and pump isentropic efficiencies are 88%. The mass flow rate of steam is 79.53 kg/s. Determine

(a) the net power output, in kW.
(b) the thermal efficiency.
(c) the rate of heat transfer from the line connecting the steam generator and the turbine, in kW.
(d) the mass flow rate of condenser cooling water, in kg/s, if the cooling water enters at 15°C and exits at 35°C with negligible pressure change.

Water is used to cool ethylene glycol in a 18.3-m-long double pipe heat exchanger made of 4-std and 2-std (both type M) copper tubing. The water inlet temperature is 15.6°C and the ethylene glycol inlet temperature is 82.2°C. The flow rate of the ethylene glycol is 9.07 kg/s, while that for the water is 13.6 kg/s. Calculate the expected outlet temperature of the ethylene glycol and determine the pressure drop expected for both streams. Assume counterflow, and place the ethylene glycol in the inner tube. Compose a Summary of Performance chart.
