There is a steam power cycle that uses water as the working fluid, where the condenser pressure is 20 kPa. The pressure in the boiler is 4 MPa. The steam that comes out of the boiler is saturated steam. The water enters the pump as a saturated liquid.The isentropic efficiencies of the pump and turbine are 87% and 97% respectively. Determine a) Real work on the pump b) Heat transfer in theboiler c) The real work on the turbine d) The heat in the condenser e) The thermal efficiency of the cycle
