Calculate the work done in the low-pressure turbine (LPT) of a Rankine cycle with reheat. The steam enters the LPT at 425°C & 60 MPa and leaves LPT as superheated steam at 375°C & 50MPA. Suggest what would be the dryness fraction of the working fluid entering the condenser.
Water is the working fluid in a regenerative Rankine cycle with one closed feedwater heater. Steam enters the turbine at 1400 lbf/in.² and 1000°F and expands to 120 lbf/in.2, where some of the steam is extracted and diverted to the closed feedwater heater. The remaining steam expands through the second-stage turbine to the condenser pressure of 2 lbf/in.2 Each turbine stage and the pump have isentropic efficiencies of 85%. Flow through the condenser, closed feedwater heater, and steam generator is at constant pressure. Condensate exiting the feedwater heater as saturated liquid at 120 lbf/in.2 undergoes a throttling process as it passes through a trap into the condenser. The feedwater leaves the heater at 1400 lbf/in.2 and a temperature equal to the saturation temperature at 120 lbf/in.² The net power output of the cycle is 1 x 10° Btu/h. Determine for the cycle: (a) the mass flow rate of steam entering the first stage of the turbine, in lb/h. (b) the rate of heat transfer, in Btu/h,…
In a steam power plant operating according to the ideal Rankine cycle at 4MPa pressure and 400CIt enters and condenses in the condenser at a pressure of 100kPa. Determine the efficiency of the cycle.What would the efficiency be if the steam entered the turbine at 5MPa pressure and condensed at 90kPa pressure.
