REGENERATIVE CYCLE WITH ONE CLOSED HEATER: Fill up the blanks with your answers below.
1. A steam power plant operates on a reheat regenerative Rankine cycle with a closed feedwater heater. Steam enters
the turbine at 8 Mpaa and 500 deg C at a rate of 20 kg/sec and is condensed in the condenser at a pressure of 20 kPaa.
Steam is reheated at 3 MPaa, 500 deg C. Some steam is extracted from the turbine at 1 Mpaa and is completely
condensed in the closed feedwater heater and pumped to 8 Mpaa before it mixes with the feedwater heater at the
same pressure in a mixing chamber. The Terminal Difference for the CFWH, (i.e., the difference between the
temperatures of the fluids leaving the heater) is 5 deg C. Assuming an isentropic efficiency of 88 percent for both the
turbines and the pumps, determine:
SUMMARY OF ANSWERS:
1. Equipment Layout and TS diagram for the
cycle
2. Ideal extracted steam for feedwater
heating in kg/kg
3. Actual extracted steam for feedwater
heating in kg/kg
4. Actual energy chargeable (KW)
5. Ideal engine efficiency (%)
6. Turbine work, actual (KW
7. Actual Cycle efficiency using Pump and
Turbine works (%)
8. Brake Work in KW if friction loss at the
turbine is 4 % of actual turbine work.
9. The torque measured at the shaft in KN-m
if the generator is running at 3600 rpm for a
brake work in item 8.
