Each second, a nuclear power plant generates 2000 MJ ofthermal energy from nuclear
Chapter 11, Problem 62(choose chapter or problem)
Each second, a nuclear power plant generates 2000 MJ ofthermal energy from nuclear reactions in the reactor's core. Thisenergy is used to boi I water and produce high-pressure steamat 300C. The steam spins a turbine, which produces 700 MJof electric power, then the steam is condensed and the water iscooled to 30C before s tarting the cycle again.a. What is the maximum possible efficiency of the plant?b. What is the plant's actual efficiency?
