A steam power plant operates on the reheat Rankine cycle. as shown in the schematic diagram (Fig. Q 2). Steam enters the high-pressure turbine at 12.5MPa and 550o C at a rate of 7.7 kg/s and leaves at 2 MPa. Steam is then reheated at constant pressure to 450o C before it expands in the low-pressure turbine. The isentropic efficiencies of the turbine and the pump are 85% and 90%, respectively. Steam leaves the condenser as a saturated liquid. If the moisture content of the steam at the exit of the turbine is not to exceed 5%, then make all the necessary assumptions and determine(a) the condenser pressure,(b) the net power output, and(c) the thermal efficiency.Draw an accurate T-s diagram of the cycle and label all the property values on this diagram. ans also comment on answer
Steam engines have boilers operating at 500K. The energy from a burning fuel converts water into steam and this steam then moves the piston. the temperature of the cold reservoir from the outside air is around 300K and the efficiency of both engines is 40%. to be able to increase the efficiency of the two machines again by increasing Th or by reducing Tc. Identify what factors cause an increase in engine efficiency in both engines and which are more effective in increasing engine efficiency?
