Question

2) Consider an ideal water pump used in an ideal Rankine Cycle. Saturated water enters the pump is at 2 psia. and exits at (200 + 2y) psia. The volume

flow rate through the pump is (20 + $) gal/min. Find the rate of work of the pump (in hp)assuming that liquid water is incompressible. Find the rate of work of the pump. Wpump=_______ hp(+- 1%)
