Problem #3: (26 Points)20.5
Consider an ideal combined reheat and regenerative cycle consisting of a High pressure turbine (HPT) and a low-pressure turbine (LPT) in which steam enters the high-pressure turbine at 3.0MPa,400C, and is extracted to an open type feed water heater (FWH) at 0.8 MPa with exit from the FWH as saturated liquid. The remainder of the steam is reheated to 400C at the same pressure (0.8 MPa ), and then fed to the LPT. If the cond. pressure is 10 kPa
a) Draw a box diagram of the cycle, (2 Points)
b) Sketch the cycle on T-S diagram. (2 Points)
c) Calculate the net work per kilogram of steam. (6 Points)
d) Calculate the thermal efficiency of the cycle. (10 Points)
e) Does this steam cycle works as a Carnot cycle? Why? (2 Points)
f) If the steam Generator has an efficiency of 0,9 and consumes 35kgs of coal with a H.V. of 28000kJkg; find the steaming capacity of the steam generator. (4 Points)
