Question
Superheated steam from the boiler expands in the turbine from inlet pressure p₁ of 50 bar and temperature 7 of 487 °C to
condenser pressure p2 of 18 kPa. In the condenser, the steam condenses to saturated water. The isentropic efficiency of the
turbine ns is 78.0 %. The mass flow of steam qm,h is 140 kg/s. In the boiler, heat flow rate to the circulating fluid (water/steam) is 458
MW.
Read from h,s-diagram and calculate:
4. Turbine power Pt
MW (with one decimal accuracy)
5. Steam content at the turbine outlet X2
kJ/kg (with two decimal accuracy)
6. Enthalpy after condenser h3
7. Thermal power of condenser Qc
8. Thermal efficiency of the plant
kJ/kg (with zero decimal accuracy)
MW (with one decimal accuracy)
