with a net power output of 105MW. The mass flow rate of the steam
is 70kg/s and enters the high-pressure turbine at 6MPa and
and leaves at 1.5 Mpa. a fraction of x of steam is extracted at
this pressure to the closed feedwater. a fraction of y of steam is
extracted from the second stage...
P8-29 A closed feedwater heater is used in a Rankine cycle Steam leaves the boiler at 20 MPa, 600°C. Between the high and low-pressure turbines, steam at 1 MPa is extracted and delivered to the closed feedwater heater. Feedwater exits the feedwater heater at 20 MPa and the saturation temperature of the 1-MPa steam; saturated liquid condensate is fed through a steam trap back to the condenser. Steam from the second- stage turbine enters the condenser at 10 kPa, and...

Consider a steam power plant that operates on the ideal
regenerative Rankine cycle with a closed feedwater heater as shown
in the figure. The plant maintains the turbine inlet at 3000 kPa
and 3508C; and operates the condenser at 20 kPa. Steam is extracted
at 1000 kPa to serve the closed feedwater heater, which discharges
into the condenser after being throttled to condenser pressure.

Enough steam is bled from Turbine 1 at 7 bar (P2') to heat the feedwater 2 to a saturated liquid 2". Determine the thermal efficiency of this reversible cycle and compare it to a Carnot cycle operating between the same two temperature extremes. Show 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...

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...
Consider a reheat-regenerative vapor power cycle with two feedwater heaters, a closed feedwater heater and an open feedwater heater. Steam enters the first turbine at 8.0 MPa, 500°C and expands to 0.8 MPa. The steam is reheated to 500°C before entering the second turbine, where it expands to the condenser pressure of 10 kPa. Steam is extracted from the first turbine at 2 MPa and fed to the closed feedwater heater. Feedwater leaves the closed heater at 200°C and 8.0...
