(REGENERATIVE CYCLE WITH ONE CLOSED AND ONE OPEN HEATER): Do not use your Steam Tables. Refer to the H 2O
properties given in the table below.
1. A regenerative cycle with one stage of reheating is executed with steam expanding initially from 20 Mpaa and 540
deg C. The reheater pressure is 10 Mpaa. The steam leaves the reheater at 540 deg C. Steam is bled after
reheating to one CFWH and on one OFWH a pressure equal to 5 Mpaa and 1 Mpaa respectively. The condensate of
the steam used in the CFWH is routed to the OFWH through a trap. The CFWH has a Terminal Difference of 4 deg.
C. Condensation occurs at 60 deg C. Sketch the equipment and TS diagram. Isentropic expansion and compression
efficiencies are 90 %. nk = 80%. Answer the following for 2.0 + (SN / 50) kg/sec of total steam circulated, and fill up
the blanks with your answers in the items below:
1. Equipment and TS diagram of the cycle
2. Actual engine efficiency (%) Answer:43.16%
3.Thermal efficiency of the actual cycle (%)using turbine and pump work values. Answer:42.21%
4. Thermal efficiency of the actual cycle (%)using Qa and Qr values. Answer:42.21%
5. Ideal Steam rate (kg/kw-hr):3.00kg/KW-hr
6. Torque produced in KN-m at the shaft connecting the generator to the turbine if brake engine efficiency = 93% and
generator rpm = 15 rev per sec Answer:23.92KN-m
7. If Cp water = 4.187 KJ/kg-K; cooling water enters the condenser at 10 deg C and leaves at 22 deg C, find amount
of cooling water needed by the condenser in kg/sec. (Ideal cycle) Answer: 86.77kg/sec
8. Actual Energy Chargeable (KW):5613.87KW
