A simple Rankine cycle uses water as the working fluid. The boiler operates at 6000 kPa and the condenser at 50 kPa. At the entrance of the turbine the temperature is 450 deg C. The isentropic efficiency of the turbine is 94 percent, pressure and pump losses are negligible, and the water in the condenser is subcooled by 6.3 degC. The boiler is sized for a mass flow rate of 20 kg/s. Determine the rate at which heat is added in the boiler, the power required to operate the pumps, the net power produced by the cycle, and the thermal efficiency.
