An electric power plant has an overall efficiency of 14.4%. The plant is to deliver 130 MW of power to a city, and its turbines use coal as the fuel. The burning coal produces steam, which drives the turbines. The steam is then condensed to water at 26.0 deg C as it passes through cooling coils in contact with river water.
2.36×10^3 Tons of coal are consumed each day.
If the river water is delivered at 22.0 deg C, at what minimum rate must it flow over the cooling coils in order that its temperature not exceed 26.0 deg C?
