4. An ideal double reheat steam turbine receives 300,000 kg/h of steam at 10 MPa and 400°C. After expansion from high pressure shell, it is reheated twice from saturated vapor condition back to its initial temperature. The steam entering the condense is 97% dry. Determine: (A) Engine work (B) Engine thermal efficiency (C) Steam rate

4. An ideal double reheat steam turbine receives
300,000 kg/h of steam at 10 MPa and 400°C. After
expansion from high pressure shell, it is reheated
twice from saturated vapor condition back to its
initial temperature. The steam entering the condenser
is 97% dry. Determine:
(A) Engine work
(B) Engine thermal efficiency
(C) Steam rate
(D) Considering a generator output of 100 MW
with 97% generator efficiency, what are the
combined heat rate, brake work, brake thermal
efficiency, pump power requirement
