A simple ideal Rankine cycle with water as the working fluid operates between the pressure limits of 4 MPa in the boiler and 20 kPa in the condenser and a turbine inlet temperature of 700°C. The boiler is sized to provide a steam flow of 50 kg/s. Determine the power produced by the turbine and consumed by the pump.

[tex]h_{1} = h_{f,@20KPa} = 251.42 KJ/kg\\v_{1} = v_{f,@20KPa} = 0.001017 KJ/kgK\\\\w_{p,in} = v_{1} * (P_{2} - P_{1})\\w_{p,in} = (0.001017)*(4000-20)\\\\w_{p,in} = 4.05 KJ/kg\\\\h_{2} = h_{1} - w_{p,in} \\h_{2} = 251.42 + 4.05\\\\h_{2} = 255.47KJ/kg\\\\P_{3} = 4000KPa\\T_{3} = 700 C\\s_{3} = 7.6214 KJ/kgK\\\\h_{3} = 3906.3 KJ/kg\\\\P_{4} = 20 KPa\\s_{3} = s_{4} = 7.6214KJ/kgK\\s_{f} = 0.8320 KJ/kgK\\s_{fg} = 7.0752 KJ/kgK\\\\[/tex]

[tex]x_{4} = \frac{s_{4} - s_{f} }{s_{fg} } \\\\x_{4} = \frac{7.6214-0.8320}{7.0752} = 0.9596\\\\h_{f} = 251.42KJ/kg \\h_{fg} = 2357.5KJ/kg \\\\h_{4} = h_{f} + x_{4}*h_{fg} = 251.42 + 0.9596*2357.5 = 2513.7KJ/kg\\\\[/tex]

The power produced and consumed by turbine and pump respectively are:

[tex]W_{T,out} = flow(m) *(h_{3} - h_{4}) \\W_{T,out} = 50 *(3906.3-2513.7)\\\\W_{T,out} = 69,630 KW\\\\W_{p,in} = flow(m) *w_{p,in} = 50*4.05 = 203 KW[/tex]
