1. Determine the thermal efficiency and the required steam flow rate [kg/s] for a reheat regenerative steam power plant which is to produce 200 MW of electricity. The turbine drives a generator with an efficiency of 94%. The turbine inlet conditions are 160 bar and 590 C; after reheat, the steam is at 100 bar and 590 C; one closed heater is at 30 bar; an open feedwater heater is at 1.5 bar, and the condenser pressure is 0.10 bar. The turbine and pump efficiencies are 100%. The terminal temperature difference from both heaters is 3 C, and the drain from the closed heater is trapped to the open heater. The extracted steam exiting the closed heater is saturated liquid Also sketch the cycle on a T-s state diagram?
a)calculate the thermal efficiency and required steam flow rate.
b)calculate the optimum heater pressures.

Consider a reheat–regenerative vapor power cycle with two feedwater heaters, a closed feedwater heater and an open feedwater heater. Steam enters the first turbine at 12.0 MPa, 520C and expands to 0.6 MPa. The steam is reheated to 480C before entering the second turbine, where it expands to the condenser pressure of 0.006 MPa. Steam is extracted from the first turbine at 2 MPa and fed to the closed feedwater heater. Feedwater leaves the closed heater at 205C and 8.0...

Consider a steam power plant that operates on an ideal reheat–regenerative Rankine cycle with one open feedwater heater, one closed feedwater heater, and one reheater. Steam enters the turbine at 10MPa and 550C and is con- densed in the condenser at a pressure of 10 kPa. Some steam is extracted from the turbine at 4 MPa for the closed feedwater heater, and the remain- ing steam is reheated at the same pressure to 550C. The extracted steam is completely condensed...

Consider a regenerative vapor power cycle with two feedwater heaters, a closed one and an open one, and reheat. Steam enters the first turbine stage at 12 MPa, 480°C, and expands to 2 MPa. Some steam is extracted at 2 MPa and fed to the closed feedwater heater. The remainder is reheated at 2 MPa to 440°C and then expands through the second-stage turbine to 0.3 MPa, where an additional amount is extracted and fed into the open feedwater heater...

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...
