    1) The document describes a Rankine cycle with saturated liquid at state 1 and superheated vapor at state 3. 2) It provides the calculations to determine the thermal efficiency of the cycle, finding it to be 26.1% when accounting for pump work. 3) When neglecting pump work, the same thermal efficiency of 26.1% is found, as the net work and heat input are unchanged without the small loss to the pump.
