1. Consider a Brayton cycle with regeneration and two stages of compression and two stages of expansion. The pressure ratio
across each stage of the compressor and turbine is 3. The air enters each stage of the compressor at 300 K and each stage
of the turbine at T6 . A regenerator with 75 percent effectiveness is used. The mass flow rate is 15 kg/s. The isentropic
efficiency of the turbines is 90 % and the isentropic efficiency of the compresors is 87 %.
a) Draw the system diagram of the cycle
b) Draw the T-s diagram of the cycle
c) Draw a table with all the properties of all states of the cycle
d) Determine the thermal efficiency of the cycle
e) Determine the net output power of the cycle
2. Consider a steam power plant that operates on an ideal reheat - regenerative Rankine cycle with one open feedwater heater,
one closed feedwater heater,and one reheater. Steam enters the turbine at p9 and 600o C and is condensed in the condenser at
a pressure of 10 kPa. Some steam is extracted from the turbine at 4 MPa for the closed feedwater heater, and the remaining
steam is reheated at the same pressure to 600o C. The extracted steam is completely condensed in the heater and is pumped
to 15 MPa before it mixes with the feedwater at the same pressure. Steam for the open feedwater heater is extracted from
the low-pressure turbine at a pressure of 0.5 MPa. The mass flow rate is m9 .
a) Draw the system diagram of the cycle
b) Draw the T-s diagram of the cycle
c) Draw a table with all the properties of all states of the cycle (including mass flow rate of each state)
d) Determine the thermal efficiency of the cycle
e) Determine the net output power of the cycle
