I’m working on a mechanical engineering multi-part question and need an explanation to help me understand better.
Consider a steam power plant operating on the simple ideal Rankine cycle. condenser and boiler pressures are 50 kPa and 3 MPa, respectively. Turbine inlet temperature is 300 °C and obtained from turbine The net work done is given as 30 MW. According to this;
a.) Draw the T-s diagram.
b.) Find the mass flow rate of the steam circulating in the circuit c.) Find the amount of heat energy given to the heat carrier fluid per unit mass
