Rankine cycle operates on boiler pressure 15 MPa and condenser pressure of 30 kPa. Superheated steam enters the high-pressure turbine at 450°C. The high-pressure turbine expands the steam and enters the re-heater at 2.5 MPa. The steam is reheated until temperature reaches 450°C before being expanded in low-pressure turbine to condenser pressure of 30 kPa. Assume the isentropic efficiency of the low-pressure and high-pressure turbines are 94% and 89% respectively, and pump is working isentropically. Neglect the change in kinetic...

Superheated steam at 8 MPa and 480°C leaves the steam generator of a vapor power plant. Heat transfer and frictional effects in the line connecting the steam generator and the turbine reduce the pressure and temperature at the turbine inlet to 7.7 MPa and 440°C, respectively. The pressure at the exit of the turbine is 10 kPa, and the turbine operates adiabatically. Liquid leaves the condenser at 8 kPa, 36°C. The pressure is increased to 8.6 MPa across the pump....
