Question
In a Rankine cycle, steam leaves the boiler at(40 bar) and (500°C) then the steam
expands through the turbine to a condenser pressure of (0.05 bar) and dryness fraction of (0.9).
Neglect the pump work, draw the cycle on the (T-S) diagram and calculate:
1. The isentropic efficiency of the turbine.
2. The thermal efficiency of the cycle.
3. The specific steam consumption.
Answers (1) nist = 87.8% (2) t = 87.8% (3) S.S.C.-3.19 kg/(kw.hr)
