A power plant operating in a Reheat Rankine Cycle produces steam at 3 MPa, 600oC in the boiler. It keeps the condenser at 45oC by transfer of 10 MW out as heat transfer. The first turbine section (high-pressure) expands to 500 kPa and then flow is reheated followed by the expansion in the low-pressure turbine.
Provide a detailed solution. Avoid shortcuts.
Find the boiler heat transfer including the reheat process (kW)
Open feed water heater in the power plant operating according to the Rankine cycle with ideal intermediate steam is used. Turbine inlet state is 10MPa 650C. Condenser pressure is 10 kPa. Intermediate steam taking takes place at a pressure of 2 MPa. The intermediate steam mass flow rate depends on the total mass flow. Find the ratio. Find the thermal efficiency.
TIP: Treat the mass flow entering the turbine by saying 1, and r for the intermediate steam. Result: r = 0.239, yield 45.2%
