A nuclear power plant based on the Rankine cycle operates with a boiling-water reactor to develop net cycle power of 3 MW. Steam exits the reactor core at 100 bar, 52O degree C and expands through the turbine to the condenser pressure of 1 bar. Saturated liquid exits the condenser and is pumped to the reactor pressure of l00 bar. Isentropic efficiencies of the turbine and pump are 81% and 78%, respectively. Cooling water enters the condenser at 15 degree...

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...
