(30 points) A steam power plant
operates on a reheat Rankine cycle.
Steam (11bms enters the high pressure
turbine at 2000 psi and 1200F and
leaves at 600 psi . Steam is then reheated
to 1100F before expanding in the lower
pressure turbine to 20 psi . The
isentropic efficiencies of the turbine
stages and pump are 95% and 100%,
respectively. Steam exits the condenser
as a saturated liquid. The pressure drop
across the boiler is 20 psi for the first
pass, 10 psi for the second pass (reheat).
and the pressure drop across the
condenser is 0 psi.
