A steam power plant operates on an ideal Rankine cycle with two stages of reheat and has a net power output of 60 MW. Steam enters all three stages of the turbine at 550°C. The maximum pressure in the cycle is 10 MPa, and the miniÂmum pressure is 30 kPa. Steam is reheated at 4 MPa the first time and at 2 MPa the second time.
Determine
(a) the thermal efficiency of the cycle,
(b) the mass flow rate of the steam.

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.
