Consider a regenerative vapor power cycle with two feedwater heaters, a
closed one and an open one, as shown in the figure. Steam enters the first
turbine stage at 12 MPa, 480°C, and expands to 2 MPa. Some steam is
extracted at 2 MPa and fed to the closed feedwater heater. The remainder
expands through the second-stage turbine to 0.3 MPa, where an
additional amount is extracted and fed into the open feedwater operating
at 0.3 MPa. The steam expanding through the third-stage turbine exits at
the condenser pressure of 6 kPa. The condensate drains from the closed
feedwater as saturated liquid at the higher extraction pressure. The
feedwater leaves the heater at 12 MPa and a temperature equal to the
saturation temperature at the extraction pressure. Saturated liquid at 0.3
Mpa leaves the open feedwater heater. Assume the pump and each
turbine stage has an
isentropic efficiency of 80%. Determine for the cycle
(a) The rate of heat transfer to the working fluid passing through the
steam generator, in kJ per kg of steam entering the first-stage turbine,
(b) The thermal efficiency, and
(c) The rate of heat transfer from the working fluid passing through the
condenser to the cooling water, in kJ per kg of steam entering the first-
