Need help for A, B, and C, thanks. 1. an electrical power plant has an overall efficiency of 15%. The plant is to deliver 150 MW of electrical power to a city, and it turbines use coal as fuel. The burning coal produces steam at 190 C, which droves the turbines. The steam is condensed into water at 25C by passing through coils that are in contact with river water. Note: the heat of combustion of coal is 7.8 X...

A proposed ocean power plant will utilize the temperature difference between surface seawater and seawater at a depth of 100 meters. Assume the surface temperature is 25° Celsius and the temperature at the 100-meter depth is 3° Celsius. 1. What is the ideal (Carnot) efficiency of the plant? 2. If the plant generates useful energy at the rate of 100 megawatts while operating with the efficiency found in part (a), at what rate is heat given off to the surroundings?...

1. An industrial plant needs 20,000 lbm of saturated steam at 280°F per hour for heating purposes and ten MW of electrical power. A small turbine system is to be designed to handle both of these needs. Steam is supplied to a turbine at 400 psia pressure from a boiler and expanded until 280°F saturated steam is obtained whereupon the steam needed for heating is extracted. The rest of the steam is expanded in a second turbine to a condenser...

How many T-shirts must the company sell this year in order to
earn $56,640 in net income?
Crane sells T-shirts imprinted with high school names and logos. Last year the shirts sold for $26 each, and variable costs were $14.00 per shirt. At this cost structure, the breakeven point was 45,000 shirts. However, the company actually earned $21,600 in net income. This year, the company is increasing its price to $28 per shirt. Variable costs per shirt will increase by...

Problem 2_Skills: Setup, T-s, mass and energy balances A steam power plant operates on the reheat regenerative Rankine cycle with a closed feedwater heater. Steam enters the turbine at 8 MPa and 500°C at a rate of 15 kg/s and is condensed in the condenser at a pressure of 20 kPa. Steam is reheated at 3 MPa to 500°C. Some steam is extracted from the low-pressure turbine at 1.0 MPa, is completely condensed in the closed feedwater heater (x3 0),...
