QUESTION 1
(40 points) Use the values given here and not the values indicated in the schema thai is
Water is the working fluid in an ideal Rankine cycle with superheat and reheat. Steam enters the first-stage turbine at 10.96 MPa and 505 C , expands to a pressure of 2.93 MPa , and is reheated to 463 C before entering the second-stage turbine. The condenser pressure is 0.014 MPa . Assume that saturated liquid exits the condenser. The net power output of the cycle is 533 MW. Determine for the cycle:
(a) the mass flow rate of steam, in kgh.
(b) the rate of heat transfer, in MW, to the working fluid passing through the steam generator.
(c) the rate of heat transfer, in MW, to the working fluid passing through the reheater.
(d) The rate of heat transfer rejected at the condenser, MW
(e) The cycle thermal efficiency.
(f) sketch the cycle in a T-s diagram
