Steam is delivered by a steam generating unit at 1100 psia and 900 °F. After expansion in the turbine to 300 psia, the steam is withdrawn and reheated to the initial temperature. Expansion now occurs to the condenser pressure of 1 psia. For 1 lb/sec of steam in an ideal cycle, find the thermal efficiency.
A steam power plant has a steam generator exit at 4 MPa, 600 ℃ and a condenser exit temperature of 45 ℃. Assume all components are ideal and find the cycle efficiency and the specific work and heat transfer in the components, (wt, wc, qh, ql, ηth=?).
In a Rankine cycle, steam leaves the boiler and enters the turbine at 4 MPa, 400C. The condenser pressure is 10 kPa. What is the pump work in kJ/kg?
