The maximum turbine power output is nearest:

The problems in this mini-exam pertain to the simple Rankine cycle shown. The various variations to this cycle depend

primarily on the temperature and pressure leaving the boiler and the pressure leaving the turbine. The mass flow rate is

20 kg/s.



A) 38.1 MW

B) 32.2 MW

C) 28.4 MW

D) 24.9 MW


C) 28.4 MW

The entropy does not change across the turbine for maximum power output so
