How to measure the property entropy?
A steam power plat operates on a cycle as shown in the figure. The fluid leaves the boiler at 400 oC and 4 MPa. Exhaust from the turbine is at 10 kPa. The efficiency of the turbine is 86%, and the efficiency of the pump is 80%. Determine the thermal efficiency of this cycle.
Air within a piston-cylinder assembly executes a Carnot heat pump cycle, as shown in the figure below. For the cycle, TH = 600 K and
Tc = 300 K. The energy rejected by heat transfer at 600 K has a magnitude of 1000 kJ per kg of air. The pressure at the start of the
isothermal expansion is 325 kPa.

Assuming the ideal gas model for the air, determine:
(a) the magnitude of the net work input, in kJ per kg of air, and
(b) the pressure at the end of the isothermal expansion, in kPa.
