You, a process design engineer, are tasked to build a powerplant with a net output of 1 MW. First, in an industrial boiler, coal is burned to heat and pressurize 1.6 kg/s of water pumped from an underground reservoir (25 oC, 1 atm) to High Pressure Steam (44 atm, 450 oC). The industrial boiler is insulated, but due to the high temperatures and the nature of the process there are inevitably heat losses. As such, the total heat losses of the whole system is around 20% of the heat from the coal. The High-Pressure Steam, moving at a linear velocity of 70 m/s, is then used to drive a turbine. The low pressure steam from the turbine is used to preheat the boiling water and then released to the atmosphere as saturated steam (100oC and1atm) at a velocity of 10 m/s via an exhaust 10 m above the turbine inlet. How much heat is needed for the powerplant? Use the following values of enthalpy: Water from reservoir 25oC; 1atm H=104.93 kJ/kg High Pressure Steam 450oC; 44atm H=3324.63 kJ/kg Low…
