1. Since any heat transfer is driven by a temperature difference, how does that affect all the real cycles relative to the ideal cycles?
2. A steam power plant, as shown in Fig. 9.3 operating in a Rankine cycle, has saturated vapor at 3.0 MPa leaving the boiler. The turbine exhausts to the condenser operating at 10 kPa. Find the specific work and heat transfer in each of the ideal components and the cycle efficiency.
