Steam power plants are responsible for the production of most electric power in the world. A small increase in thermal efficiency can mean large savings from the fuel requirements. Consider a steam power plant that operates on a simple ideal Rankine cycle. Steam is cooled in the condenser at a pressure of 75 kPa by running cooling water at 16°C from the nearby river through the tubes of the condenser. To increase the thermal efficiency of the power cycle, a...
