Question 3 [30 marks] A reheat Rankine cycle is designed for a steam power plant. Steam enters both the high- and low- pressure turbines at 600oC. The maximum and minimum pressures of the cycle are 20 MPa and 20 kPa, respectively. Steam leaves the condenser as a saturated liquid. The moisture content of the steam at the exit of the low-pressure turbine is 4% if the actual expansion process is adiabatic; 8.5% if the ideal expansion process is isentropic. The...
b) A steam regenerative cycle, shown below, is delivering 100 MW of power. Steam from the boiler 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 is raised back to 400°C and supplied to the 2nd stage turbine. Expansion in the 2nd stage turbine is also isentropic to a pressure of 400 kPa, where a fraction (y...
