Question

As a chemical engineering student, you are asked to investigate the efficiency of a Rankine

Power cycle that is to be used to generate electricity. The power cycle, uses steam at 20 MPa

flowing at 220.5 kg/s with at temperature of 625 ˚C. The steam entering the condenser does so

at 250 KPa with a dryness fraction of 0.75 before being isobaric ally cooled.

a) Draw a labelled schematic flow diagram of the process.

 

b) Determine the efficiency of the plant.

 

c) Draw the TS Diagram of the power cycle on a water Mollier diagram.
