In a cogeneration cycle, the water vapor in the turbine expands from 6000 kPa and 440 °C to 8 KPa. The turbine has an isentropic efficiency of 85% and produces a power of 50 MW. Steam is extracted at 500 kPa to feed a load to the process heater of 83333.33 KJ/s. The steam leaves this as a saturated liquid at 400 kPa and mixes with the liquid from the condensate pump at 400 kPa.efficiency isentropic of the pumps is 70%, the mass flow going to the process heater and the heat supplied to the boiler are: a. 2300 Kg/min; 197 MW b. 2432Kg/min; 192MWc c. 2550kg/min; 199MWd d. 2186kg/min; 184 MW
