A small power plant produces 25 kg/s steam at 3 MPa, 600 degrees Celsius in the boiler. It cools the condenser with the ocean water coming in at 12 degrees Celsius and returning at 15 degrees Celsius so the condenser exit is at 45 degrees Celsius. Find the net power output and the required mass flow rate of ocean water.
In a steam turbine steam at 2 MPa, 360°C is
expanded to 8 kPa. It then enters a
condenser, where it is condensed to saturated
liquid water. The pump feeds back the water
into the boiler. Assume ideal processes, find
per kg of steam the net work and the cycle
efficiency.
