Question
A 155-MW two stage ideal reheat cycle steam power plant has the steam generator and condenser
operating between the pressure limits of 89 bar and 75mm Hgabs, respectively. Steam exits the HP-
turbine at 11 bar, 205 °C, exits the IP-turbine at 1.0 bar, 130°C, and exits the LP-turbine with a 7.5%
moisture content. For the ideal cycle, determine:
a. The temperature of steam entering the HP-turbine, IP- turbine and LP-turbine
b. The percentage of the total heat supplied constituted by the first reheater
c. The percentage of the total heat supplied constituted by the second reheater
d. The rate of heat addition (kW)
e. The rate of heat rejection (Kw
f. The turbine and cycle thermal efficiencies
g. The cycle and turbine steam rate (high pressure; intermediate pressure; Low pressure)
