3. Figure P8.78 shows a vapor power cycle that provides process heat and produces power. The steam generator produces vapor at 500 lbf/in2, 800°F, at a rate of 8x104 Ib/h. Eighty-eight percent of the steam expands through the turbine to 10 lbf/in.2 and the remainder is directed to the heat exchanger. Saturated liquid exits the heat exchanger at 500 lbf/in.* and passes through a trap before entering the condenser at 10 lbf/in.2 Saturated liquid exits the condenser at 10 lbf/in.2...
In Geothermal-steam power cycle, the source of heat is the hot water from well. The heat exchanger receive hot water at Tg1= 105 oC and the water leaves at 40 oC as shown in Figure 3. Steam exits the boiler at 40 bar, 300 oC, and it exits the turbine at 1 bar. Saturated liquid water exits the condenser at 1 bar. The plant operate to generate 20 MW electric power with generator efficiency of 0.95. The isentropic efficiency of...

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...

WWVUU moressar Q-1 A power plant operates on a regenerative vapor power cycle with one closed feedwater heater. Steam (water vapor) enters the first turbine stage at 120 bar, 520°C and expands to 10 bar, where some of the steam is extracted and diverted to a closed feedwater heater. Condensate exiting the feedwater heater as saturated liquid at 10 bar (State 7) passes through a trap (valve) into the condenser. The feedwater exits the heater at 120 bar with a...
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...
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 12.0 MPa, 520C and expands to 0.6 MPa. The steam is reheated to 480C before entering the second turbine, where it expands to the condenser pressure of 0.006 MPa.
