University Of Pennsylvania Operations And Supply Chain Management Assignment Help - the high-pressure

Question - Steam enters the high-pressure turbine of a steam power plant that operates on the ideal reheat
Rankine cycle at 800 psia and 900°F and leaves as saturated vapor. Steam is then reheated to 800°F
before it expands to a pressure of 1 psia. Heat is transferred to the steam in the boiler at a rate of 6 =
104 Btu/s. Steam is cooled in the condenser by the cooling water from a nearby river, which enters
the condenser at 45°F. Show the cycle on a T-s diagram with respect to saturation lines, and
determine
(a) The pressure at which reheating takes place,
(b) The net power output and thermal efficiency, and
(c) The minimum mass flow rate of the cooling water required.
