The heat rate is defined as, HR Qbioler Wnet where Qbioler is the heat transfer rate (Btu/h) to the water in the boiler due to the combustion of a fuel and Wnet is the net power (kW) delivered by the plant. In comparison, the thermal efficiency of the power plant is defined as, nth Wnet Qbioler where the numerator and denominator have the same units. Consider a power plant that is delivering 1000 MW of power while utilizing a heat transfer rate of 3570 MW at the boiler. Determine the heat rate and thermal efficiency of this power plant.arrow_forwardThe shaft shown in the sketch is subjected to tensile torsional and bending loads Determine the principal stresses at the location of stress concentration ✓ D=45MR F=3MM 1000-M 1000N チ d=30mm 500N 150 мм MM- 120 MA-arrow_forward

(a) State the conditions that must be met to ensure dynamic balance is achieved for long rotors. (b) A rotor carries three out-of-balance discs in planes A, B and C as shown in Figure 4. The out-of- balance mass x radius products of the rotor discs are tabulated in Table 4. The shaft is to be dynamically balanced by adding balancing masses in planes P and Q, spaced along the shaft at a distance da = 800 mm. Determine the magnitude mara and angular position of the balancing mass x radius product that must be added to plane Q.
