QUIZ 3: Combined Cycle Power Plant

1. The gas turbine power plant operating in an air standard Brayton cycle
produces a maximum theoretical net work of 11,190 kW. The compressor
and turbine inlet temperatures are 25oC and 1000oC. Determine the mass
flow rate of air in kg/s.
2. Steam is the working fluid in an ideal Rankine cycle with superheat and
reheat. Steam enters the first stage turbine at 15 MPa, 600oC, and expands
to 0.7 MPa. It is then reheated to 440oC before entering the second stage
turbine, where it expands to the condenser of 0.010 MPa. Determine the
backwork ratio.
3. The gas turbine power plant operating in an air standard Brayton cycle
produces a maximum theoretical net work of 11,190 kW. The compressor
and turbine inlet temperatures are 25oC and 1000oC. The hot gas leaving
the gas turbine enters the HRSG. The air to steam flow rate ratio is 10.
Steam enters the first stage turbine at 15 MPa, 600oC, and expands to 0.7
MPa. It is then reheated to 440oC before entering the second stage turbine,
where it expands to the condenser of 0.010 MPa. Determine the
temperature of air leaving the HRSG and the thermal efficiency of CCPP.
