Q1) Consider a cogeneration power plant modified with regeneration. Steam enters the turbine at 6 MPa and450 °C at a rate of 60 kg/s and expands to a pressure of 0.4 MPa. At this pressure, 20% of the steam is extractedfrom the turbine, and the remainder expands to a pressure of 10 kPa. Part of the extracted steam is used to heatfeedwater in an open feedwater heater. The rest of the extracted steam is used for process heating and leaves theprocess heater as a saturated liquid at 0.4 MPa. It is subsequently mixed with the feedwater leaving thefeedwater heater, and the mixture is pumped to the boiler pressure.

Please could you explain to me how to solve this exercise Consider a modified cogeneration power plant with regeneration. Steam enters the turbine at 6MPa and 450ºC at a rate of 20Kg/s, and expands to a pressure of 0.4MPa. At this pressure 60% of the water vapour is extracted from the turbine, and the rest is expanded to a pressure of 10KPa. Part of the extracted steam is used to heat the feed water in an open feed water heater. The rest of the extracted vapour is used for process heating, and leaves the process heater as a saturated liquid at 0.4MPa.
