    This document describes an actual reheat cycle with one-stage reheating. Steam initially expands from 8 MPa and 485°C and enters a reheater at 1.425 MPa and 305°C before leaving at 485°C with a pressure drop of 425 kPa. The steam then expands again in the turbine and exits at 35°C with 95% quality. The problem asks to determine the thermal efficiency, steam rate, heat rate, indicated engine efficiency, brake engine efficiency, combined engine efficiency, and mass flow rate of steam for the actual cycle and engine.

    Grades = scores/7 answers

    An Actual Reheat Cycle with one-stage reheating is executed with steam expanding initially from the throttle at 8 MPa
    and 485oC. The steam enters a Reheater at 1.425 MPa, 305 oC. The steam leaves the reheater at 485 oC with a pressure
    drop of 425 kPa. The steam leaves the Turbine at 35 oC after 2nd expansion with 95%quality. The condensate is subcooled
    by 20o. Turbine mechanical efficiency, 78%; Generator output 40MW at 92% efficiency.
    Determine
    For Actual cycle
    (a) Thermal efficiency in %
    (b) Steam rate in kg/kwh
    (c) Heat rate in kJ/kwh
    For Actual Engine
    (d) Indicated engine efficiency in %
    (e) Brake engine efficiency in %
    (f) Combined engine efficiency in %
    (g) mass flow of steam in kg/h
