What is the power generated (in kW) in a geothermal power plant, if the enthalpies entering and leaving the turbine are 2,750.43 kJ/kg and 2,205.11 kJ/kg, respectively. The steam flow rate is 57 kg/s. The engine and generator efficiencies are 91 % and 97 %, respectively.
A steam power plant operates in cycle as shown.The rating of the power cycle is 100,000 kW. Determine the m, Qh, Qc and n of the plant.
On my online homework, it says the answer for part b, 993.2 kW and part c, 360.06 are incorrect. I also need help with part d. The figure below provides steady-state operating data for a cogeneration cycle that generates electricity and provides heat for campus buildings. Steam at 1.5 MPa, 280°C, enters a two-stage turbine with a mass flow rate of m1 = 2 kg/s. A fraction of the total flow, y = 0.15, is extracted between the two stages at 0.2 MPa to provide for building heating, and the remainder expands through the second stage to the condenser pressure of 0.1 bar. Condensate returns from the campus buildings at 0.1 MPa, 60°C and passes through a trap into the condenser, where it is reunited with the main feedwater flow. Saturated liquid leaves the condenser at 0.1 bar.

Thermodynamics (Carnot Cycle) An Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) power plant produces 25000 kW of ouput using warm surface water temperature of 29°C and a cold deep-water temperature of 12°C. Assume it is a carnot cycle and density of cold water to be 1000 kg/m3.If the temperature of the sink is maintained and the efficiency is doubled, what is the new temperature of the hot source? Options: a. 38.16% b. 48.16% c. 58.00% d. 32.09% e. None of the above
(Thermodynamics) A steady-flow system operating on the ideal Ericsson cycle can achieve the Carnot efficiency. One of the salient features of this cycle is the isothermal expansion through a heated turbine, as shown in Fig. a. Heat is added to the turbine such that the outlet temperature is equal to the inlet temperature, i.e. T₁=T₂, and the overall pressure ratio for this process is rₚ=P₁/P₂. However, an isothermal expansion through a heated turbine is very difficult to achieve in practical engineering applications. An alternate approach is two use a multi-stage expansion process with reheating. In this approach, the gas expansion process is carried out in multiple stages with reheating in between each stage. Consider the two-stage turbine expansion with reheating shown in Fig. b. The gas enters the first stage of the turbine at state A1, is expanded isentropically to an intermediate pressure Pₐ₂, is reheated at constant pressure to state B1, and is expanded in the second stage…
