A food processing plant makes soup in a continuous process with a steady flow of product into and out of a large kettle. The soup is maintained at a certain temperature by heating the kettle with a coil of steam pipes. The large size of the kettle means the entering product remains in the kettle for a long time. Draw a graphic and describe how the plant could use feedback, feedforward, and cascade control to maintain a constant temperature. Which...

A power plant operates on a regenerative vapor power cycle with one open feedwater heater. Steam enters the first turbine stagge at 12 MPa, 560*C and expands to 1 MPa, where some of the steam is extracted and diverted to the open feedwater heater operating at 1 MPa. The remaining steam expands through the second turbine stage to the condenser pressure of 6 kPa. Saturated liquid exits the open feedwater heater at 1 MPa. The net power output for the...
