Thermodynamics and heat transfer
A stem power plant is proposed to operate between the pressures of 15 kPa and
2 MPa with a maximum temperature of 400°C. What is the maximum efficiency
possible from the power cycle? How the power efficiency will be changed if the
pressure of superheated steam is increased to be 2.5 MPa?
