Question
Transcribed Image Text:(a) Steam is supplied, dry saturated at 40 bar to a turbine and the condenser pressure
is 0.035 bar. If the plant operates on the Rankine cycle, calculate, per kilogram of steam:
(i) the work output neglecting the feed-pump work;
(ii) the work required for the feed pump;
(i) the heat transferred to the condenser cooling water, and the amount of cooling
water required through the condenser if the temperature rise of the water is assumed
to be 5.5 K;
(iv) the heat supplied;
(v) the Rankine efficiency;
(vi) the specific steam consumption.
(b) For the same steam conditions calculate the cfficiency and the specific steam
consumption for a Carnot cycle operating with wet steam.
