Consider a coal-fired steam power plant that produces 175 MW of electric power. The power plant operates on a simple ideal Rankine cycle with turbine inlet conditions of 8 MPa and 560°C and a condenser pressure of 8 kPa. The coal has a heating value (energy released when the coal is burned) of 29,300 kJ/kg and a CO2 emission value of 0.093 kg CO2/MJ. Assuming that 85% of this energy is transferred to heat in the boiler and that the...

Water is the working fluid in a Rankine cycle. Steam exits the steam generator at 1500 lbf/in.2 and 1100°F. Due to heat transfer and frictional effects in the line connecting the steam generator and turbine, the pressure and temperature at the turbine inlet are reduced to 1400 lbf/in.2 and 1000°F, respectively. Both the turbine and pump have isentropic efficiencies of 95%. Pressure at the condenser inlet is 2 lbf/ in. 2, but due to frictional effects the condensate exits the...
