  2. A stationary gas-turbine power plant operates on a simple ideal Brayton cycle with air as the working fluid. The air enters the compressor at 95 kPa and 290 K and the turbine at 760 kPa and 1100 K. Heat is transferred to air at a rate of 35,000 kW. Determine the power delivered by this plant a) Assuming constant specific heats at room temperature b) Accounting for the variation of specific heats with temperature Assumptions : 1 steady operating condition exists. 2 The air-standard assumptions are applicable. 3 Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible. 4 Air is an ideal gas.

  4. A steam power plant operates on a simple ideal Rankine cycle between the specified pressure limits of 9 MPa and 15 kPa. The mass flow rate of steam through the cycle is 35 kg/s. The moisture content of the steam at the turbine exit is not to exceed 10 %.

  6. Consider an ideal steam regenerative Rankine cycle with two feedwater heaters, one closed and one open. Steam enters the turbine at 12.5 MPa and 550oC and exhaust to the condenser at 10 kPa. Steam is extracted from the turbine at 0.8 MPa from closed feedwater heater and at 0.3 MPa for the open one. The feedwater is heated to the condensation temperature of the extracted steam leaves the closed feedwater heater. The extracted steam leaves the closed feedwater heater as a saturated liquid which is subsequently throttled to the open feedwater heater. Show the cycle on a T-s diagram with respect to saturation lines, and determine: • The mass flow rate of steam through the boiler for a net power output • of 250MW, • b) the thermal efficiency of the cycle.

  12. Consider a combined gas-steam power plant that has a net power output of 450 MW. The pressure ratio of the gas–turbine cycle is 14. Air enters the compressor at 300 K and the turbine at 1400 K. The combustion gases leaving the gas turbine are used to heat the steam at 8 MPa to 400oC in a heat exchanger. The combustion gases leave the heat exchanger at 460 K. An open feedwater heaters incorporated with the steam cycle operates at a pressure of 0.6 MPa. The condenser pressure 20 kPa.
