Consider a steam power plant that operates on a reheat Rankine cycle and has a net power output of 80 MW. Steam enters the high-pressure turbine at 10 MPa and 500°C and the low-pressure turbine at 1 MPa and 500°C. Steam leaves the condenser as a saturated liquid at a pressure of 10 kPa. The isentropic efficiency of the turbine is 74 percent and that of the pump is 95 percent. Determine the quality (or temperature, if superheated) of the...

Consider a steam power plant that operates on a reheat Rankine cycle and has a net power output of 80 MW. Steam enters the high-pressure turbine at 10 MPa and 550°C and the low-pressure turbine at 1 MPa and 550°C. Steam leaves the condenser as a saturated liquid at a pressure of 10 kPa. The isentropic efficiency of the turbine is 80 percent, and that of the pump is 95 percent. Show the cycle on a T-s diagram with respect...

A steam power plant operates on the reheat Rankine cycle. Steam enters the high-pressure turbine at 12.5 MPa and 5508C at a rate of 7.7 kg/s and leaves at 2 MPa. Steam is then reheated at constant pressure to 400 C before it expands in the low-pressure turbine. Steam leaves the condenser as a saturated liquid. The exit of the turbine is saturated at the condenser pressure (a) the condenser pressure, (b) the net power output, and (c) the thermal...
Steam power plant using the reheat Rankine cycle
A steam power plant operates using the reheat Rankine cycle. Steam enters the high pressure turbine at 12.5 MPa and 550ºC at a rate of 7.7 kg/s and leaves at 2MPa. Steam is then reheated at a constant pressure to 450ºC before it expands in the low pressure turbine. The isentropic efficiencies of the turbine and the pumpare 85% and 90%, respectively. Steam leaves the condenser as a saturated liquid. If the moisture content of the steam at the exit...

a) A steam power plant operates on an ideal reheat-regenerative Rankine cycle. Steam enters the high-pressure turbine (HPT) at a pressure of 10 MPa and temperature of 550°C. The steam expands through the HPT stage to a pressure of 0.6 MPa. Some of the steam at the end of the expansion process in HPT is extracted for a regeneration process in a closed-type feedwater heater. The steam leaves the heater as a saturated liquid and then is throttled to the...

Consider a power plant with water as working fluid that operates on a reheat Rankine cycle and has a net power output of 75 MW. Steam enters the high-pressure turbine at 10 MPa and 400°C and the low-pressure turbine at 1 MPa and 400°C. Water leaves the condenser as a saturated liquid at a pressure of 100 kPa. The isentropic efficiency of the high-pressure turbine is 85% and the low-pressure turbine in 100%. The pump has an isentropic efficiency of...

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...
