A superheat steam Rankine cycle has turbine inlet conditions of 17.5 MPa and 530 degC expands in a turbine to 0.007 Mpa. The Turbine and pump polytrophic efficiencies are 0.85 and 0.75 respectively, pressure losses between pump and turbine inlet are 1.5 Mpa. What should be the pump work in Kj/kg?

In an open feedwater heater for a steam plant, saturated steam at 7 bar is mixed subcooled liquid at 7 bar and 25 degC. Just enough steam is supplied to ensure that the mixed steam leaving the heater will be saturated liquid at 7 Bar when heater efficiency is 95%. Calculate the mass flow rate of sub-cooled liquid if steam flow rate is 0.865 kg/s.

A steam condenser receives 10 kg/s of steam with an enthalpy of 2770 kj/kg. steam condenses into a liquid and leaves with an enthalpy of 160 kj/kg. cooling water passes through the condenser with temperature increases from 13 DegC to 24 DegC. Calculate the water flow rate in Kg/s.

Steam expands adiabatically in a turbine from 200 Kpa, 400 DegC to 400 Kpa, 250 DegC. What is the effectiveness of the process in percent assuming an atmospheric pressure of 18 DegC. Neglect changes in kinetic and potential energy.

A heat exchanger was installed purposely to cool 0.50 kg of gas per second. Molecular weight is 32 and k = 32. The gas is cooled from 150 degC to 80 DegC. Water is available at the rate of 0.30 kg/s and at a temperature of 5 degC. Calculate the exit temperature of the water in degC.

A 350 mm x 450 mm steam engine running at 280 rpm has an entrance steam condition of 2 MPa and 230 degC and exit 0.1 Mpa. The steam consumption is 2000 kg/hr and mechanical efficiency is 85% if indicated mean effective pressure is 600 Kpa, determine brake thermal efficiency.

A steam turbine with 85% stage efficiency receives steam at 7 Mpa and 550 degC and exhaust as 20 Kpa. Determine the turbine work.
