PROBLEM: A flashed-steam geothermal power plant is located where underground hot water is available as saturated liquid at 715 kPa, The well head pressure is 680 kPa. The flashed steam enters a turbine at 635 kPa and expands to 15 kPa, when it is condensed. The flow rate from the well is 35.3 kg/s. Determine: Draw the T-S diagram The mass flow rate of steam in kg/s The power produce in KW The cooling water flow in kg/s if water is available at 25 oC and a 15°C rise is allowed through the condenser.

a power plant steam, steam is continuously extractedfromthe turbine and in a heat exchanger there is a condensation of the extracted steam. The energy released during condensation of steam is used to operate a heat engine. A heat engine receives thermal energy at a rate of 1200 kJ/hr from condensing steam and rejects waste heat to a lake at 20°C at a rate of 800 kJ/hr. Determine the lowest possible condensing steam temperature.
Steam is delivered to turbine at 5.4 MPa and 600 degree C. Before condensation at 31 degree C, steam is extracted for feed water heating at 0.6 MPa. The turbine exhaust is 60 degree C. the required values of some state point properties are tabulated below. 7. Determine the quality of steam at the condenser inlet.
An industrial plant needs 20,000 lbm of saturated steam at 280oF per hour for heating purposes and ten MW of electrical power. A small turbine system is to be designed to handle both of these needs. Steam is supplied to a turbine at 400 psia pressure from a boiler and expanded until 280oF saturated steam is obtained whereupon the steam needed for heating is extracted. The rest of the steam is expanded in a second turbine to a condenser pressure of 5 psia, where it is condensed, compressed to 400 psia and returned to the boiler. The heating steam returns as a liquid at 200oF and 1 atm pressure where it is compressed to 400 psia and returned to the boiler. Both turbines have an efficiency of 72% and both feed water pumps have an efficiency of 50%. The power from the turbines is used to drive the feed water pumps. (a) At what temperature must the steam be generated in the boiler to supply the 280oF saturated heating steam? (b) How much steam must the boiler supply? (c) If one pound of…

I need help on the following question: The vapour compression cycle (picture provided), utilises the refrigerant R134a flowing at 0.05 kg s-1. Assuming that the compression is adiabatic and reversible. If the actual input power to the compressor is 2 kW, then: 1. You need to determine the theoretical input power to the compressor and the heat transfer (Φ) to theevaporator. Take the enthalpies h1, h2, and h3 to be 238.41, 263.68 and 81.5 kJ kg-1 (use the 'NH3 Refrigeration Table' where you can find online). 2. You need to determine the coefficient of performance based on your answer to the previous question (1). 3. You need to determine the compressors mechanical efficiency.
