Superheated steam at 20 MPa, 640°C enters the turbine of a vapor
power plant. The pressure at the exit of the turbine is 0.5 bar,
and liquid leaves the condenser at 0.4 bar at 75°C. The pressure is
increased to 20.1 MPa across the pump. The turbine and pump have
isentropic efficiencies of 81 and 85%, respectively. Cooling water
enters the condenser at 20°C with a mass flow rate of 70.7 kg/s and
exits the condenser at 38°C. For the...

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

pump....
