A steam Rankine cycle operates between the pressure limits of 1500 psia in the boiler and 2 psia in the condenser. The turbine inlet temperature is 800°F. The turbine isentropic efficiency is 90 percent, the pump losses are negligible, and the cycle is sized to produce 2500 kW of power. Calculate the mass flow rate through the boiler, the power produced by the turbine, the rate of heat supply in the boiler, and the thermal efficiency.

a. Mass flow rate through the boiler = 5.462lbm/s

b. Power produced by the turbine = 2525.8kW

c. The rate of heat supply in the boiler = 6901.42Btu/s

d. Thermal efficiency of the cycle = 34.3%

Explanation:

In order to provide a solution, we must assume that ;

- The system is operating at a steady condition

- Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible

Now from steam tables, we calculate specific volume and enthalpy as,

(  at )

( at )

( at & )

( & when pressure is 2psia)

Therefore,

To calculate the mass flow rate of steam in the cycle, we use the formula

where

The power output and the rate of heat addition are calculated thus,

The thermal efficiency of the cycle can be found thus;

= 34.3%

diagram is missing, but i will try to explain your doubt.

answer:

amplitude is the maximum displacement or distance moved on a point of a vibrating body or wave measured from its equilibrium position.it is equal to half the length of vibration path.

as we probably am aware that our atmosphere or air have various levels, each level has different gasses, and each gas has another porousness. at the point when the light originates from lower porousness to higher penetrability, it alters its course. with the goal that implies that when the light originates from the moon to the earth, it alters it's course a lot more occasions. it essentially implies that the state of the light piece of the moon is changed on the earth.

not copied too! hope this !

h o h o hope you have a merry christmas!
