    This document provides the solution to calculating the efficiency of a regenerative Rankine cycle with an open feedwater heater. Steam enters the turbine at 2 MPa and 300°C and exits at 3.5 kPa. The efficiency is calculated by performing an energy balance around the turbine, condenser, pumps, boiler and open feedwater heater. The thermal efficiency is determined to be the ratio of net work output to heat input from the boiler.

    Reheat Rankine Cycle

    Steam

    power plant that operates on a reheat


    Rankine cycle with 80 MW of net output. Steam
    enters the high pressure turbine at 10 MPa and
    500 C, and the low pressure turbine at 1 MPa
    and 500 C. Steam leaves the condenser as a
    saturated liquid at 10 kPa. Isentropic efficiencies
    of the turbine and compressor are 80 percent
    and 95 percent, respectively. Find:
    a) quality or temperature of steam at turbine
    exit.
    b) thermal efficiency of the cycle.
    c) mass flow rate of the steam.
