7. A reheat cycle with two stages of reheating is executed, with steam expanding initially from 90 bar and 530°C. The two reheater pressures are 10 bar and 0.6 bar, and the steam leaves each reheater at 480°C. Condensation occurs at 0.03 bar. For an ideal cycle, find (a) Q, and e. (b) For the engine, ignore the pressure drop through the reheaters, let the engine operate through the same states, and compute W and e to What is the steam flow rate for an engine output of 20,000 kW? Ans. (a) 4657.5 kJ/kg, 44.31%; (b) 2072.6 kJ/kg, 44.41%: (c) 9.65 kg/s 7. A reheat cycle with two stages of reheating is executed, with steam expanding initially from 90 bar and 530°C.
