Question: Problem - 1 ( Marks: 3 0 + 3 for Cleanliness ) Consider a cogeneration system operating as shown in the figure below. Water steam
ProblemMarks: for Cleanliness
Consider a cogeneration system operating as shown in the figure below. Water steam enters the first turbine stage at MPa, Between the first and second stages, of the steam is extracted at kPa and diverted to a process heating load of Condensate exits the process heat exchanger at kPa with specific enthalpy of and is mixed with liquid exiting the lowerpressure pump at kPa The entire flow is then pumped to the steam generator pressure. At the inlet to the steam generator the specific enthalpy is Saturated liquid at kPa leaves the condenser. The turbine stages and the pumps operate with isentropic efficiencies of and respectively.
Draw the s diagram of the cycle.
Determine:
a the mass flow rate of steam entering the first turbine stage, in kgs
b the net power developed by the cycle, in MW
