- Ideal Rankine Cycle with Regeneration: After having investigated the Rankine cycle in detail, we can begin to augment the cycle with modifications beyond a theoretical model toward what might be practical in real life. In an effort to increase the thermal efficiency of the cycle, a small portion of hot steam is extracted from the turbine and sent to a mixing box to "preheat" the cold liquid before it enters the steam generator. The mixing box is often referred to as an open feedwater heater and the process that results is referred to as a regeneration process. The Rankine cycle with regeneration operates with water as the working fluid and has the following conditions: P: = 75 kPa, xI = 0, P: = 2000 kPa, T; = 700 °C, P; = Ps = 1200 kPa, x3 = 0, m = 2.0 kg/s, m3= 0.5 kg/s Determine hi, ha, hs, ha, hs, hs, hr, hs, Wp1, Wa2: Q2.
