Steam enters the turbine at 12MPa and 500 °C and it is cooled in the condenser at a pressure of 12kPa by running cooling water from the Bertam River through the tubesof condenser. Steam enters both stages of the turbine at b°C. If the moisture content of the steam at the exit of the low-pressure turbine is not to exceed 10 percent, show the cycle on a T-s diagram and determine;i.The pressure at which reheating takes place, ii.The thermal efficiency of the cycleandiii.Please justify how does the thermal efficiency of the cycle if the temperature to low turbine is increase to 600°C?
A steam turbine takes up steam at 1200 K and discharges the waste steam to the condenser at 450 K. In order to maintain the source temperature constant at 1200 K, coal is fired at the rate of 120 t h-1in the boiler. Taking into account the losses in the boiler, 70% of the fuel heat goes to generate steam which is supplied to the turbine with a negligible heat loss. The turbine is coupled to a turbo-alternator to generate an AC. If the generator efficiency is 93% and transmission efficiency is 95%, what is the electrical power output available in the grid? Given calorific value of fuel is 32000 kJ/kg.
In a gas turbine generating set two stages of compression are used with an intercooler between stages. The HP turbine drives the HP compressor, and the LP turbine drives the LP compressor and the generator. The exhaust from the LP turbine through a heat exchanger which transfer heat to the air leaving the HP compressor. There is a reheat combustion chamber between turbine stages which raises the gas temperature to 8000C, which is also the gas temperature at entry to the HP turbine. The overall pressure ratio is 30, each compressor having the same pressure ratio, and the air temperature at entry to the unit is 300C. The heat exchanger thermal ratio may be taken as 0.75, and intercooling is complete between compressor stages. Assume isentropic efficiencies of 0.85 for both compressor stages, and 0.9 for both turbine stages, and the 4% of the work of each turbine is used in overcoming friction. Neglecting the losses in pressure, and assuming that velocity changes are negligibly small,…
