Question
Which of the following statements is false in terms of increasing the efficiency of the ideal Rankine Cycle?
A. Decreasing the condenser pressure lowers the temperature of the steam as well as the temperature at which heat is rejected.
B. Expansion of the steam in two stages with reheating reduces the moisture content of the steam.
C. Increasing the boiler pressure will increase the efficiency of the cycle and reduce the moisture content of the steam.
D. N
E. Superheating the steam to high temperatures increases the temperature at which heat is added and therefore increases the net work.

- Design a "Reheat Rankine Ideal Cycle" with the following requirements:1. Set your boiler's pressure and temperature.2. Set your condenser's pressure.3. Solve your design's "Rankine Ideal Cycle" and get the thermal efficiency.4. To maximize efficiency, add a reheater to your initial setup.arrow_forwardWater is the working fluid in an ideal Rankine cycle. Steam enters the turbine at 1400 lbf/in² and 1000°F. The condenser pressure is 2 lb/in.² The net power output of the cycle is 250 MW. Cooling water experiences a temperature increase from 60°F to 76°F, with negligible pressure drop, as it passes through the condenser. Step 1 * Your answer is incorrect. Determine the mass flow rate of steam, in lb/h. m = i 1207000 lb/harrow_forwardA. 2.89776 B.2.88339 C.2.92 D.2.8999arrow_forward
