Feed-pump Calculation, Using Thermo Utilities, MS Excel Add-ins

Saturated water is supplied to a feed-pump at 0.035 bar. The outlet pressure is 12 bar.

1-Calculate the input power to the feed-pump if the mass flow of the water is 2 kg/s and the isentropic efficiency of the pump is 0.9

2-Calculate specific enthalpy, specific entropy, specific volume and temperature of the water before and after the pumping process
