The following diagram illustrates a simple steam power plant. A
10kg/s flow of liquid water at T1=25°C enters the pump at a
pressure of P1=100kPa and is then pumped to a pressure of P2=2MPa.
The boiler then heats the water at constant pressure to produce
superheated vapour at T3=450°C. The steam is then expanded in the
turbine to a final pressure of P4=100kPa. The turbine and pump are
well insulated and may be considered reversible.
a) Find the turbine exit...
5.(14 marks total) The sketch shows a system for producing superheated steam from hot liquid water. A steady flow of saturated liquid water enters at 1 at a pressure of P, = 200 kPa and passes through a valve which reduces the pressure to P, = 100 kPa. The resulting mixture enters a separation tank, from which saturated vapour at 4 flows out to a compressor which compresses it to Ps = 300 kPa, while saturated liquid at 3 is...
Urgent
An industrial process discharges 5,700 m3/min of gaseous products at 200°C, 100 kPa. The figure below shows a proposed system for utilizing the combustion products and its steady state conditions. Heat transfer from the outer surface of the steam generator (heat exchanger) and turbine can be ignored, as can the changes in kinetic and potential energies of the streams. There is no pressure drop through the heat exchanger. The combustion product can be modeled as air as an ideal...
please help thermodynamics
a) Explain the methods that can be adopted to increase the thermal efficiency of a vapor power cycle. You may use a T-s diagram to explain your reasons. b) A steam regenerative cycle, shown below, is delivering 100 MW of power. Steam from the boller is supplied to the turbine at 8 MPa. 400°C. After expanding isentropically in the 1st stage turbine to a pressure of 1 MPa, steam is taken to the reheater where Its temperature...

1/4 Thermo I-Take-Home Final Summer 2019 Thermodynamics I: Final, Summer 2019 (7/30, Tuesday) (Total 200 points) Name: Consider a modern extra-supercritical pressure steam power plant that operates on a reheat-regenerative 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...
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...
You are working for a venture capital firm and are tasked with determining if an invention should be considered for financial feasibility studies. The invention consists of a tube into which compressed air is admitted. The tube separates the compressed air at an intermediate temperature into two air flows, one hot and one cold. A schematic of the invention is shown below in fig. 1. The compressed air admitted into the device is divided such that 60% of it exits...
