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...
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...

A steam power plant is based on the Rankine cycle with reheat (refer to the figure below). Steam is produced by the boiler/superheater (H-1) at 100 bar and 600 C at a rate of 2.5 kgs. This is expanded to 10 bar in the turbine T-1 and then reheated to 600 °C in heater H-2. The steam is then expanded in turbine T-2 to a pressure of 0.1 bar. The steam is then condensed in condenser (C-1) which operates at...
