Water is the working fluid in a rankine cycle. steam enters the turbine at 1400 lbf/in^2 and 1000 degrees f. the condenser pressure is 2 lbf/in^2. both the turbine and pump have isentropic efficiencies of 85%. the working fluid has negligible pressure drop in passing through the steam generator. the net power output of the cycle is 1x10^9 btu/h. cooling water experiences a temperature increase from 60 degrees f to 76 degrees f, with negligible pressure drop, as it passes through the condenser. determine for the cyclea) the mass flow rate of steam, in lb/hb) the rate of heat transfer, in btu/h, to the working fluid passing through the steam generator. c) the thermal efficiency. d) the mass flow rate of cooling water, in lb/h

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
