Question

s. Consider a steam power plant operating on a cycle as shown in below Figure. A boiler transfers heat to the water at constant pressure (process 2-3), causing high pressure steam to exit and enter the turbine. The steam expands isentropically in a turbine (process 3-4) and produces work by rotating the shaft connected to an electric generator. The steam is then condensed at constant pressure (process 4-1) in the condenser by rejecting heat to the atmosphere and the pump increases the pressure lost through the turbine at isentropic compression (process 1-2) to complete the cycle. Boiler Turbine Pump Condenser Steam leaves the boiler of the simple steam power cycle shown above at P 4000 k and Ts -600 °C. It exits the turbine at P-30 kPa as saturated steam (x-1). It then exits the condenser as saturated water (x 0). Determine the thermal efficiency of a cycle. Also, draw P-v and T-v, and T-s diagrams Pa
