70. In a Rankine cycle steam enters the turbine at 2.5 MPa (enthalpies & entropies given) and
condenser of 50 kPa (properties given), what is the thermal efficiency of the cycle?
@ 2.5 MPa: hg = 2803.1 kJ/kg sg = 6.2575 kJ/kg-K
@ 50 kPa: sf = 1.0910 kJ/kg-K sfg = 6.5029 kJ/kg-K
hf = 340.49 kJ/kg hfg = 2305.4 kJ/kg
υf = 0.00103 m3
