A simple ideal Rankine cycle with water as the working fluid operates between the pressure limits of 3 MPa in the boiler and 30 kPa in the condenser. If the quality at the exit of the turbine cannot be less than 90 percent, what is the maximum thermal efficiency this cycle can have

When at a point two solid phase changes to one solid phase on cooling then it is known as a) eutectoid point b) eutectic point c) peritectic point d) peritectoid point

The temperature of air decreases as it is compressed by an adiabatic compressor. a)- true b)- false

Apiston-cylinder device contains 0.1 m3 of liquid water and 0.9 m3 of water vapor in equilibrium at 800 kpa. heat is transferred at constant pressure until the temperature of water reaches 350 °c. determine (a) the quality of water at the initial state (b) the work associated with this process, (c) the heat associated with this process.
