1-1) Please explain the reason why we need to use both phases - liquid and vapor in a single Rankine cycle. Please, for example, use these keywords; pump work, specific volume, turbine work, back work ratio.
1-2) Assume that 150C,30kW of process heat is required. If it can be given by using turbine exit gas at which temperature is 250C from Rankine cycle operation, can this cycle have 100% of cogeneration utilization factor? If not, please explain the reason.
1-3) Is it possible to maintain a pressure of 10 kPa in a condenser that is being cooled by river water at 20C?
1-4) What is the difference between 'cogeneration' and 'regeneration' in Rankine Cycle?
1 - 1 ) Please explain the reason why we need to
