Apower plant based on the rankine cycle is under development to provide a net power output of 10 mw. concentrating solar collectors are to be used to generate steam at 300 degrees c and 2 mpa for expansion through the turbine. cooling water exit temperature is at 20 degrees. estimate the thermal effiencey, steam flow rate, and water flow rate

An open feedwater heater operates at steady state with liquid entering at inlet 1 with t? = 40°c and pl = 1 .2 mpa. water vapor att2-200°c and p2 = 1.2 mpa enters at inlet 2. saturated liquid water exits with a pressure of pa 1.2 mpa. neglect heat transfer with the surroundings and all kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the mass flow rate of steam at inlet 2 if the mass flow rate of liquid water at inlet 1 is given as 2 kg/s.
