Rankine cycle experiment:
5000ml water consumed in experiment used
Time (sec): 1055
Boiler, Temp (c): 167.199
Turbine In, Temp (c):109.3
Turbine ex, Temp (c): 97.79
Boiler Pres, (KPa) : 721.315
Turbine In Pres, (KPa): 85.639
Turbine Ex Pres, (KPa): 32.826
Fuel flow, (L/Min):5.842
Generator, (RPM): 1949.185
Voltage (volts): 7.443
Current (Amps): 0.135
Power (Watts): 1.002
Calculate:
1.Mass flow rate of water/ steam in the closed cycle.
2. Specific work generated by the turbine.
3. Power generated by the turbine.
4. Heat rejected to cooling system by the condenser.
5. Specific work into the pump.
6. Heat flux introduced by the boiler
Please Help me, Ive posted this question a few times,and I don't understand why they use turbine inlet pressure instead of the boiler pressure.
Whats also confusing me is how they get h1 ,h2,h3 and h4 from the tables if the figures do not correspond.
Id really appreciate it if someone can properly explain this to me.
