    This document provides three sample problems involving calculations related to the Rankine cycle steam power plant. The first problem involves determining the net work, cycle efficiency, and pump work given steam conditions entering and leaving an ideal turbine. The second problem involves calculating the heat rate, thermal efficiency, and engine efficiency of a turbo generator plant operating on steam at specific conditions. The third problem involves calculating the thermal efficiency under original and modified steam conditions in the boiler and turbine.

    Thermodynamics 2 Rankine Cycle/Engine

    Sample Problems

    1. A steam turbine plant operates on Rankine cycle with steam entering turbine at 40 bar, 350ºC
    and leaving at 0.05 bar. Steam leaving turbine condenses to saturated liquid inside condenser.
    Saturated liquid is pump into the boiler. Determine the net work per kg of steam and the cycle
    efficiency assuming all processes to be ideal. Also determine pump work per kg of steam
    considering linear variation of specific volume.
    2. A turbo generator has a combined steam rate of 5.35 kg/kWh at its rated output of
    20,000kW. The steam is at 1.7MPa, 300oC and the exhaust is at 0.01MPa.
    Calculate a) the combined heat rate
    b) combined thermal efficiency
    c)combined engine efficiency
    3. Consider a steam power plant operating on the ideal Rankine Cycle. Steam enters
    the turbine at 3Mpa and 350oC and is condensed at a pressure of 10kPa.
    Determine a) thermal efficiency
    b) thermal efficiency if steam is superheated to 600oC instead of 350oC
    c) thermal efficiency if the boiler pressure is raised to 15MPa while the
    turbine temperature is maintained at 600oC
