Saturated steam at 7.585 MPa (1100 psia) and 616.3 K (650 F) enters the high pressure turbine of an ideal regenerative Rankine cycle. The cycle is equipped with a moisture separator, delivering saturated water to an open feedwater heater at 0.689 MPa (100 psia). Only 18% of the steam leaving the moisture separator is used in an open feedwater heater. Pressure in the condenser is 7 kPa (1 psia). Find a) the cycle thermal efficiency, b) the work per unit mass flow rate of water consumed by the condensate pump, c) the work per unit mass flow rate of water consumed by the feedwater pump, d) the work per unit mass flow rate of water produced by the high pressure turbine, e) the work per unit mass flow rate of water produced by the low pressure turbine, f) the heat per unit mass flow rate of water delivered to the heat source, and g) the enthalpy of water leaving the open feedwater heater.
