Mechanical Engineering

You are to required to design a steam power cycle that mustoperate in the parameter space defined below. Final designs shouldbe as close to the desired operating conditions as possible. Youare to prepare an engineering report that clearly articulates yourdesign and its analysis and should include, but is not limited toreporting on the following:

Thermodynamic principles and theory that describe the operationof your design

Analysis, including calculations of you design and the finalcycle thermal efficiency, work output, required inputs and heatrejection requirements

Complete specification of the state of the working fluid at allpoints in the cycle

All system figures, T-s and P-v diagrams, correctly andadequately labelled such that all technical information is clearlyconveyed

Max cycle thermal efficiency: 50%

Isentropic efficiency of the turbine: 80%

Isentropic efficiency of the pump: 75%

Max operating pressure: 15000kPa

Max quality at turbine exit: 0.95
