A ____ cycle consists of two Rankine vapor power cycles that use different working fluids.
In a regenerative cycle the inlet conditions are 40 bar and 400°C. Steam is bled at 10 bar in regenerativeheating. The exit pressure is 0.8 bar. Neglecting pump work determine the efficiency of the cycle
In an ideal reheat cycle, the steam throttled condition is 8 MPa and 480 degree C. the steam is then reheated to MPa and 460 degree C. the turbine exhaust is 60 degree C. The required values of some state point properties are tabulated below.
