Consider a modern extra-supercritical pressure steam power plant that operates Rankine cycle with one open feedwater heater, one closed feedwater heater, and one reheater, as shown below. Steam enters the high-pressure turbine at 32 MPa and 700 °C and is condensed in the condenser at a pressure of 10 kPa. Steam exits the high-pressure turbine at 4 MPa and is routed into a reheater (inside the boiler) to be reheated to 640 °C. Steam at P-8 MPa is extracted from...
SP-25 Consider a regenerative steam power plant with one open feedwater heater and one closed feedwater heater. Superheated steam enters the turbine with a mass flow rate of 120 kg/s at 16 MPa and 560°C (State 1). Some fraction of the steam is extracted at 40 bar (State 2) and is supplied to the closed feedwater heater. The remaining steam expands to a pressure of 3 bar (State 3), another fraction is extracted at this pressure, and is supplied to...
C and D please. AGL Energy is expanding the capacity of the Liddell Power Station. The plan is to commission a steam turbine power plant that operates on a regenerative Rankine cycle and has a net power output of 150 MW where steam enters the turbine at 10 MPa and 500°C, and the condenser at 10 kPa. The isentropic efficiency of the turbine is 80 percent, and that of the both pump is 95 percent. Steam is extracted from the...
You are to analyze a simple steam power plant. At the boiler exit, the pressure is 8 MPa and the temperature is 1000 °C. The turbine isentropic efficiency is 85%. The condenser pressure is 15 kPa and the water is a saturated liquid at the condenser exit. The pump isentropic efficiency is 80%. Answer the following: a) What is the quality at the exit in %, if the turbine is assumed isentropic? b) What is the work output of the...
A steam power plant design consists of an ideal Rankine cycle with regeneration. Steam enters Turbine 1 at P1 and T1 at the rate of m1 and exits at P2. A fraction (y') of the steam exiting Turbine 1 is diverted to a closed feedwater heater while the remainder enters Turbine 2. A portion (y'') of the steam exiting Turbine 2 at P3 is diverted to an open feedwater heater while the remainder enters Turbine 3. The exit of Turbine...

2) A steam power plant operates on an ideal regenerative rankine cycle with superheated steam leaving the boiler, entering the turbine at 10 mPa,600C. X fraction of steam is extracted from the turbine at 0.6 mPa pressure for the high pressure open feedwater heater. Then x fraction more of steam is extracted from the turbine at 0.2 mPa pressure for the low pressure open feedwater heater . The condenser pressure in the cycle is 5 kPa. The mass flow rate...
A power plant operates on a regenerative vapor power cycle with one open feedwater heater. Steam enters the first turbine stage at 12 MPa, 560°C and expands to 1 MPa, where some of the steam is extracted and diverted to the open feedwater heater operating at 1 MPa. The remaining steam expands through the second turbine stage to the condenser pressure of 6 kPa. Saturated liquid exits the open feedwater heater at 1 MPa. The net power output for the...

A steam power plant design consists of an ideal Rankine cycle with reheat and regeneration. Steam enters Turbine 1 at P1 and T1 at the rate of m1 and exits at P2. A fraction (y') of the steam exiting Turbine 1 is diverted to a closed feedwater heater while the remainder is reheated to T3 before entering Turbine 2. A fraction (y'') of the steam exiting Turbine 2 at P4 is diverted to an open feedwater heater while the remainder...
