Q. No.1A regenerative Rankine cycle operates with superheat, 2 stages of expansion and one open feed heater. The cycle parameters are: Boiler exit pressure 100 bar Super heater exit temperature 600°C Condenser pressure 0.1 bar Turbine isentropic efficiency 100% Assume that the feed pump work can be neglected.
i. Determine the optimal inter-stage pressure by selecting the nearest value from the Saturated Water and Steam tables. i.e. do not interpolated between tabulated values. [2 marks]
ii. Sketch the feed heater layout, indicating the fluid streams entering and leaving the feed heater, undertake and energy balance on the feed heater and hence calculate the fraction of steam bled from the turbine. [2 marks]
iii. Calculate the plants thermal efficiency and its specific steam consumption.
iv. State clearly the thermodynamic reasons for the difference in performance between this cycle and similar cycle using a closed feed heater if the closed feed heater operated according the assumptions. What is the disadvantage of using an open feed heater? [2 marks]
v. Draw a schematic diagram of the plant layout and the associated thermodynamic cycle on a T-s diagram.

The essay question is based on the following: The current situation in the United States (and much of the world) is quite extraordinary due to COVID-19 (aka coronavirus). Several recent occurrences are described here (all after most local public schools closed on March 13, 2020). Wildish relocated to his vacation home in northern Idaho so he would avoid being exposed to COVID-19. Ulwelling heard about Wildish’s relocation and, without doing any research of his own, immediately got the feeling that he should do the same thing. However, Siddiqui, who was Ulwelling’s supervisor, ordered him to report to work in Irvine on the regular schedule since “I am the boss and you are the employee.” Siddiqui believed that keeping a consistent schedule was better for the employees and the company alike. Saint saw several packages of toilet paper left unattended so she stole them because she could not find it elsewhere and she had five young children. Francis saw an elderly couple take a container of hand sanitizer from the shelf at the market so he moved quickly to grab all of the rest of the containers before they could get more. Voorhees saw this and he handed two containers of the hand sanitizer to the elderly couple since he wished someone would do that for him if he were elderly. The large supermarket chain called Ralph’s limited all customers to two packages of meat per purchase so that more people could buy meat. Jade limited her shopping since she knew her mother would disapprove if mother found out Jade was a hoarder. Finally, Shaadie thought that “this whole coronavirus thing is a product of socialist fake news put out by the Democrat-friendly media.”

What are the issues of ethical statistical practices and reporting that need to be followed in today’s business environment? Why might this be a problem? When reporting statistical information, why is it essential to make the primary reporting direct and easy to understand, while including the more complex analysis in an appendix? What are some of the issues about reporting statistics that we need to consider when preparing information for decision makers?

Program Specifications:
You are to design the following menu:
G] Get a number
S] Display current sum
A] Display current average
H] Display the current highest number
L] Display the current lowest number
D] Display all numbers entered
Q] Quit
If the user enters G, S, A, H, L, or D before selecting G the program needs to advise the user to go and enter a number first.

Write a function (call it by your first name e.g. abc_trim) that takes a list as argument , modifies it by removing the first and last two elements, and returns the new modified list e.g. if we call the function as katline_trim([1,4,6,8,11, 15]), we should get [4,6,8]. (Hint: Look at how we refer to list elements by their index and also how we use a negative number as index. You can also use a loop with the len() method
