+//Variable declaration:
+//From example 13.4:
+h1 = 548.0 //Steam enthalpy at the entry and exit to the boiler (kJ/kg)
+h2 = 3989.0 //Steam enthalpy at the entry and exit to the turbine (kJ/kg)
+h3 = 2491.0 //Steam enthalpy at the entry and exit to the pump (kJ/kg)
+h4 = 448.0 //Steam enthalpy at the entry and exit to the condenser (kJ/kg)
+Qb = 3441.0 //Enthalpy change across the boiler (kJ/kg)
+
+//Calculation:
+Wt = h2 - h3 //Work produced by the turbine (kJ/kg)
+Wp = h1 - h4 //Work used by the pump (kJ/kg)
+W_net = Wt - Wp //Net work by subtracting the pump work from the turbine work (kJ/kg)
+n_th = W_net/Qb //Thermal efficiency
+
+//Result:
+printf("The thermal efficiency is : %.1f %%.",n_th*100)
