A 600 MW power plant has an efficiency of 36 percent with 15

Answer:

401.3 kg/s

Explanation:

The power plant has an efficiency of 36%. This means 64% of the heat form the source (q1) will become waste heat. Of the waste heat, 85% will be taken away by water (qw).

qw = 0.85 * q2

q2 = 0.64 * q1

p = 0.36 * q1

q1 = p /0.36

q2 = 0.64/0.36 * p

qw = 0.85 *0.64/0.36 * p

qw = 0.85 *0.64/0.36 * 600 = 907 MW

In evaporation water becomes vapor absorbing heat without going to the boiling point (similar to how sweating takes heat from the human body)

The latent heat for the vaporization of water is:

SLH = 2.26 MJ/kg

So, to dissipate 907 MW

G = qw * SLH = 907 / 2.26 = 401.3 kg/s

Answer:

m = 367.753 kg.s

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

Power plant capacity W=600 MW

Plant efficiency is \eta = 36\%

efficiency = \frac{W}{QH}

0.36 = \frac{600}{QH}

QH = 1666.6 MW

from first law of thermodynamics we hvae

QH -QR = W

Amount of heat rejection is QR = 1066.66 MW

As per given information we have 15% heat released to atmosphere

QR = 0.15 \tiimes 1066.66 = 159.99 MW

AND 85% to cooling water

Q = 0.85 \times 1066.66 = 906.66 MW

from saturated water table

at temp 150 degree c we have Hfg = 2465.4 kJ/kg

rate of cooiling water is given as  =  mhfg

906.66 \times 1000  KW = m \times 2465.4

m = 367.753 kg.s

where m is rate of makeup water that is added to offset

A. be in compliance with school attendance requirements

Explanation:

The requirements to acquire a special restricted driver's license for driver's license for under under 18 that have had a beginner's for up to 180 days include a minimum of 40 hours driving practice 10 of which should be in the dark. The application for the conditional drivers license is to be signed by the parent or guardian and the application is to be accompanied with proof of acceptable school attendance

An incandescent light bulb can be regarded as a resistor. If its power output is 100W, calculate the resistance of the light bul
stira [4]

Answer:121\ \Omega

0.909\ A

Explanation:

Given

Power P=100\ W

Voltage applied V=110\ V

Resistance of the bulb is given by

P=\frac{V^2}{R}

100=\frac{110^2}{R}

R=\frac{12100}{100}

R=121\ \Omega

Current drawn by the Power source is given by

P=V\cdot I

I=\frac{P}{V}

I=\frac{100}{110}

I=0.909\ A
