It is proposed to operate a simple steam power plant as shown in
the figure. The water is completely vaporized in the boiler so that
the heat transfer QB takes place at constant temperature. Assume no
heat transfer occurs from the pump or the turbine. Calculate
integral of delta Q over T for the process. (make sure you find the
correct sign, and units of kJ/K.

Steam generated in a power plant at a pressure of 8,600 kPa and
temperature of
600°C is fed to a turbine. Exhaust from the turbine enters a
condenser at 10 kPa, where it is
condensed to saturated liquid, which is then pumped to the boiler.
The turbine and the pump in the Rankine cycle operate at 80% and
75% efficiency, respectively.

A steam power plant is based on the Rankine cycle with reheat (refer to the figure below). Steam is produced by the boiler/superheater (H-1) at 100 bar and 600 C at a rate of 2.5 kgs. This is expanded to 10 bar in the turbine T-1 and then reheated to 600 °C in heater H-2. The steam is then expanded in turbine T-2 to a pressure of 0.1 bar. The steam is then condensed in condenser (C-1) which operates at...
