Assignment No 6

1. Sketch the T- s diagram for Figure 1

Figure 1 : A Steam Power Plant with One Open and Three Closed Feedwater
Heaters
 2. Sketch the T- s diagram for Figure 2

Figure 2: A gas-turbine engine with two-stage compression with intercooling,

two-stage expansion with reheating, and regeneration
3. A steam power plant operates on an ideal-regenerative Rankine cycle
with one reheater and two open feedwater heaters as shown in Figure 3.
Steam enters the high pressure turbine at 10 MPa and 600 C and leaves
the low pressure turbine at 7.5kPa. Steam is extracted from the turbine
at 1.8 and 03 MPa and it is reheat to 550 C at a pressure of 1 MPa. Water
leaves both feed waters as saturated liquid. Heat is transfer to the steam
in the boiler at a rate of 400 MW. Calculate the thermal efficiency of the
system.
