Recommend general considerations when selecting a site for Thermoelectric Power Plant.
Steam at 4800 lbf/in.2, 1000 deg F enters the first stage of a supercritical reheat cycle including two turbine stages. The steam exiting the first-stage turbine at 600 lbf/in.2 is reheated at constant pressure to 1000 deg F. Each turbine stage and the pump have an isentropic efficiency of 85%. The condenser
pressure is 1 lbf/in.2 If the net power output of the cycle is 100 MW, determine
(a) the rate of heat transfer to the working fluid passing
through the steam generator, in MW.
(b) the rate of heat transfer from the working fluid passing
through the condenser, in MW.
