Question 1

The efficiency of the vapour power Rankine cycle can be increased by
1) Increasing the temperature of the working fluid at which heat is added
2) Increasing the pressure of the working fluid at which heat is added
3) Decreasing the temperature of the working fluid at which heat is rejected
Which of the above statements are correct?

Question 2

In a simple rankine cycle, the heat added to boiler is 75kJ/kg. Entropy at inlet to boiler was 6.88 kJ/kgK which changed to 6.98 kJ/kgK due to heat addition at boiler. The heat removal of the cycle takes place at 27oC. The efficiency of the cycle is _______%.

Question 3

Increasing boiler pressure causes which of the following in a Rankine Cycle?

Question 4

What is the specific steam consumption (in kg/kWh) of the Rankine cycle based on net output if the enthalpies at turbine inlet and exit are 3200 kJ/kg and 2050 kJ/kg respectively. Specific work by pump is 1.5 kJ/kg.

Question 5

Rankine cycle consists of __________.

Question 6

Question 7

If a reheater is added to a Rankine Cycle then usually

Question 8

For a regenerative Rankine cycle, T-S plot is given. Steam at rate 1kg/s is entering the turbine. At an intermediate stage (pressure P2) m1 kg/s steam is extracted by open feed water heater 1. At another intermediate stage (pressure P3) m2 kg/s steam is extracted by open feed water heater 2. Which of the following energy balance equation is INCORRECT?
