Q1) A steam power plant operates on the reheat-regenerative Rankine cycle with a closed feedwater heater. Steam enters the turbine at 12.5 MPa and 550°C at a rate of 24 kg/s and is condensed in the condenser at a pressure of 20 kPa. Steam is reheated at 5 MPa to 550°C. Some steam is extracted from the low-pressure turbine at 1.0 MPa, is completely condensed in the closed feedwater heater, and pumped to 12.5 MPa before it mixes with the feedwater at the same pressure. Assuming an isentropic efficiency of 88 percent for both the turbine and the pump, determine (a) the temperature of the steam at the inlet of the closed feedwater heater, (b) the mass flow rate of the steam extracted from the turbine for the closed feedwater heater, (c) the net power output, and (d) the thermal efficiency.

In a reheat-regenerative Rankine cycle, the condenser pressure is 10 KPa. Steam enters the first turbine at 12.5 MPa and 500 oC. Steam is reheated at 3 MPa at the same temperature before entering the second turbine. For the regeneration, steam is extracted from the second turbine at 0.5 MPa to an open feedwater heater (OFWH). Draw the schematic and T-S diagrams. Label the points by setting point 1 at the condenser outlet, point 2 at the 1st pump (right after the condenser) outlet, point 3 at the OFWH outlet, point 4 at the 2nd pump outlet, point 5 at the boiler outlet, point 6 at the reheater inlet, point 7 at the reheater outlet, point 8 for the extraction of steam to OFWH and point 9 at the condenser inlet. Use 2 decimal places for the enthalpy, steam quality (%), thermal efficiency (%), and other energies. For the fraction of steam (y) and entropy (s), use 4 decimal places. For the specific volume, use 6 decimal places. USE THE STEAM TABLES FROM CENGEL'S BOOK ONLY 1.T-S Diagram 2…
Scenario (1) The first steam power plant operates on an ideal reheat Rankine cycle. Steam enters the first turbine at 8 MPa and 500 C and leaves at 3 MPa. Steam is then reheated at a constant pressure to 500 C before it expands to 20 kPa in the low-pressure turbine. Assuming that heat is being added to the boiler from a high temperature source at 1800 K and the condenser is transferring heat to a temperature sink at 300 K. Task 1 Investigate the effect of changing pump efficiency on the overall thermal efficiency of the thermodynamics cycle (Hint: You will assume different values for the isentropic pump efficiency such as: 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, and 100%, then observe how it will change the thermal efficiency of the cycle). Representing the results in a plot is recommended.

Required information NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part. Consider a steam power plant that operates on a reheat Rankine cycle and has a net power output of 80 MW. Steam enters the high-pressure turbine at 10 MPa and 500°C and the low-pressure turbine at 1 MPa and 500°C. Steam leaves the condenser as a saturated liquid at a pressure of 10 kPa. The isentropic efficiency of the turbine is 72 percent and that of the pump is 95 percent. Determine the quality (or temperature, if superheated) of the steam at the turbine exit. Use steam tables. (You must provide an answer before moving on to the next part.) The temperature of the steam at the turbine exit is °C.
