A heat engine uses 1kg of water
as the working fluid.It absorbs heat at 300 C. During the phase the
water goes from saturated liquid to saturated vapor. The heat
rejection phase takes place at 100 C.
Assume a Carnot cycle and do A through E.

7. Consider a Carnot-cycle heat engine with water as the working fluid. The heat transfer to the water occurs at 150°C, during which process the water changes from saturated liquid to saturated vapor. The heat is rejected from the water at 25°C.

(d) the rate of heat transfer from the working fluid passing through the condenser, in kW.
ne cycle adds and removes heat and removes work from a"working fluid" (usually steam) to convert work. The working fluid goes through a "cycle", meaning that it starts and ends at the same thermodynam conditions (T, P, etc.) after passing through each step in the process. Each step is typically at steady state. It is heat namic nvenient to label the streams in the way that we used in class: (I) saturated liquid at high pressure Pu (2) saturated vapor...

1. Saturated liquid H20 at 16 MPa is fed into the boiler of a variant of a Carnot cycle (but simplified Rankin cycle) where the working fluid is not an ideal gas. Saturated H20 vapor is fed into the turbine of the same turbine. The condenser of this turbine is operated at 8 kPa. The mass flowrate of the H20 in this cycle is 7.2x103 kg/min.

Problem 1. (40) Water is the working fluid in an ideal Rankine cycle with reheat. Superheated vapor enters the turbine at 12 MPa, 480 °C and the pressure at the exit of the second stage turbine is 8 kPa. Steam expands through the first stage turbine to 1 MPa and then is reheated to 440 °C. Saturated liquid water leaves the condenser. After the pump, pressure goes back to 12 MPa.
