Consider a simple ideal Rankine cycle with fixed boiler and condenser pressures. If the steam is superheated to a higher temperature, (a) the turbine work output will decrease. (b) the amount of heat rejected will decrease. (c) the cycle efficiency will decrease. (d) the moisture content at turbine exit will decrease. (e) the amount of heat input will decrease.

Option D - the moisture content at turbine exit will decrease

Explanation:

In an ideal rankine system, the phenomenon of superheating occurs at a state where the vapor state of the fluid is heated above its saturation temperature and the phase of the fluid is changed from the vapor phase to the gaseous phase.

Now, a vapour phase has two different substances at room temperature, whereas a gas phase consists of just a single substance at a defined thermodynamic range, at standard room temperature.

At the turbine exit, since it's just a single substance in gaseous phase, it means it will have less moisture content.

Thus, the correct answer is;the moisture content at turbine exit will decrease
