A steam power plant receives heat from a furnace at a rate of 280 GJ/h. Heat losses to the surrounding air from the steam as it passes
A steam power plant receives heat from a furnace at a rate of 280 GJ/h. However, there are heat losses to the surrounding air as steam moves through the pipes and other components, estimated to be about 8 GJ/h. Additionally, the waste heat is transferred to the cooling water at a rate of 145 GJ/h. Based on this information, please determine the following: (a) the net power output and (b) the thermal efficiency of this power plant.
