Provide an expert insight about the methods used to increase thermal efficiency of a steam power plant.
B- A steam generation unit in power plant operates at a constant pressure of (10 bar) and the water evaporates at the rate of (0.9 from the total mass flow rate of water). Inlet and leaving water enthalpy are (200 kJ/kg) and (2000 kJ/kg) respectively. The inlet and outlet velocity are (10 m/s) and (25 m/s) respectively. If 80% of the heat energy supplied to the steam generation unit is used in evaporating the fluid. Determine the heat evaporation and work done if the inlet and outlet diameter are the same level. The fuel produces 28000 kJ of heat energy for one kg and the mass flow rate of water is 1000 kg/h.
A Rankine cycle with a thermal efficiency of 42% produces 100 kW of net power. What is the rate of heat transfer into the boiler? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
(A) the net heat energy absorbed during a cyclic process (the difference between heat flowing into the system and heat leaving the system) is the work. If we regard the atmosphere as a heat engine, what is the work being done by the atmosphere? That is, what phenomenon or phenomena are a realization of the work being done by the atmosphere? (B) Of all possible heat engines, the Carnot cycle has the maximum efficiency between any two operating temperatures (think of these temperatures as the maximum and minimum temperatures encountered during the cycle). Estimate the Carnot efficiency of Earth's atmosphere. [Hint: Think about the temperature variation with latitude.] (C) Do you think the efficiency of the real atmosphere would be "close" or "far" from the Carnot efficiency? Please explain your answer.
Using the ideas in heat pumps under cyclic process, thoroughly explain the following(with diagram if possible)
4- An engineer has designed an efficient and economic engine to receive 500kJ of heat per cycle from a boiler at 652C and rejects heat to a river at 39C to maintain the environmental and health regulation. (a) What's the highest thermal efficiency level for this engine? (b) the amount of heat rejected to the river per cycle for case (a) to meet the public health, safety and environmental regulation.
derive a symbolic expression for the maximum net conversion efficiency of the cycle,ηcycle, the ratio of the net amount of work produced compared to the external (not from heatregeneration) heat absorbed. You may treat the working fluid as an ideal gas. Your expressionmay include Tc, Th, and any defined constants.
