Homework#5
A closed-cycle gas turbine unit operating with maximum and minimum temperature of 760oC and 20oC has a pressure ratio of 7/1. Calculate the ideal cycle efficiency and the work ratio
Consider a steam power plant that operates on a simple, ideal Rankine cycle and has a net power output of 45 MW. Steam enters the turbine at 7 MPa and 500°C and is cooled in the condenser at a pressure of 10 kPa by running cooling water from a lake through the tubes of the condenser at a rate of 2000 kg/s. Show the cycle on a T-s diagram with respect to saturation lines, and determine The thermal efficiency of the cycle,The mass flow rate of the steam and the temperature rise of the cooling water
