3. (40 pts) A steam power plant based on the Rankine cycle, shown in the below, operates to develop net cycle power. Saturated vapor at 8 bar enters the turbine where it expands to the condenser pressure of 1 bar. Water liquid exits the condenser 30 °C and 1 bar and it is pumped to the boiler pressure of 8 bar. Isentropic efficiencies of the turbine and pump are 80% and 60%. Assume kinetic and potential energies are negligible at...
1) A Rankine cycle with reheat uses 1 kg s-1 of steam though the primary turbine, whose inlet conditions are 400C and 50 Bar. The primary turbine has an isentropic efficiency of 80% and an outlet pressure of 10 Bar. After this turbine, all of the steam is reheated to 400C and passed through a reheat turbine which also has an isentropic efficiency of 80% and whose outlet pressure is 1 bar, which is the condenser pressure. After the condenser,...
