A binary geothermal power plant uses geothermal water at 160°C as the heat source. The cycle operates on the simple Rankine cycl

bogdanovich [222]

A binary geothermal power operates on the simple Rankine cycle with isobutane as the working fluid. The isentropic efficiency of the turbine, the net power output, and the thermal efficiency of the cycle are to be determined

Assumptions :

1. Steady operating conditions exist.

2. Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible.

Properties: The specific heat of geothermal water ( $c_{geo}$ [) is taken to be 4.18 kJ/kg.ºC.

Analysis (a) We need properties of isobutane, we can obtain the properties from EES.

a. Turbine

P $P_{3} = 3.25mPa = (3.25*1000) kPa\\= 3250kPa\\from the EES TABLE\\h_{3} = 761.54 kJ/kg\\s_{3} = 2.5457 kJ/kg\\P_{4} = 410kPa\\\\s_{4} = s_{3} \\h_{4s} = 470.40kJ/kg\\\\T_{4} = 179.5^{0} C\\\\h_{4} = 689.74 kJ/KG\\\\ The isentropic efficiency, n_{T} = \frac{h_{3}-h_{4} }{h_{3}- h_{4s} }$

= $=\frac{761.54-689.74}{761.54-670.40} \\=\frac{71.8}{91.14} \\=0.788$

b. Pump

$h_{1} = h_{f} @ 410kPa = 273.01kJ/kg\\v_{1} = v_{f} @ 410kPa = 0.001842 m^{3}/kgw_{p,in} = \frac{v_{1}(P_{2}-P_{1}) }{n_{p} } \\\\= \frac{0.01842(3250-410)}{0.9} \\\\ =5.81kJ/kg\\h_{2} =h_{1} + w_{p,in}\\ = 273.01+5.81\\ = 278.82 kJ/kg\\\\w_{T,out} = m^{.} (h_{3} -h_{4} )\\=(305.6)(761.54-689.74)\\=305.6(71.8)\\=21,942kW\\\\$

$W^{.} _ {P,in} = m^{.} (h_{2} -h_{1}) \\=m^{.} w_{p,in \\=305.6(5.81)\\\\=1,777kW\\W^{.} _{net} = W^{.} _{T, out} - W^{.} _{P,in} \\= 21,942-1,777\\=20,166 kW\\\\HEAT EXCHANGER\\\\Q_{in} = m^{.} _{geo} c_{geo} (T_{in-T_{out} } )\\=555.9(4.18)(160-90)\\=162.656kW\\$

c. $The thermal efficiency of the cycle n_{th} =\frac{W^{.} _{net} }{Q^{._{in} } } \\\\= \frac{20,166}{162,656} \\=0.124\\=12.4%$

What is the thermal efficiency of this regeneration cycle in terms of enthalpies and fractions of total flow?

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

$\eta =\dfrac{(h_3-h_4)-(h_2-h_1)}{(h_3-h_5)}$

Explanation:

generally regeneration of cycle is used in the case of gas turbine. due to regeneration efficiency of turbine is increased but there is no effect on the on the net work out put of turbine.Actually in regeneration net heta input is decreases that is why total efficiency increase.

Now from T-S diagram

$W_{net}=W_{out}-W_{in}$

$W_{net}=(h_3-h_4)-(h_2-h_1)$

$Q_{in}=h_3-h_5$

Due to generation $(h_5-h_2)$ amount of energy has been saved.

$Q_{generation}=Q_{saved}$

So efficiency of cycle $\eta =\frac{W_{net}}{Q_{in}}$

$\eta =\dfrac{(h_3-h_4)-(h_2-h_1)}{(h_3-h_5)}$

Effectiveness of re-generator

$\varepsilon =\dfrac{(h_5-h_2)}{(h_4-h_2)}$

So the efficiency of regenerative cycle

$\eta =\dfrac{(h_3-h_4)-(h_2-h_1)}{(h_3-h_5)}$

You are driving on a roadway with multiple lanes of travel in the same direction, and are approaching an emergency vehicle parke

solmaris [256]

Answer: a. Leave the lane closest to the emergency as soon as it is safe to do so, or slow down to a speed of 20 MPH below the posted speed limit.

Explanation:

Giving a way to the law enforcement vehicle and a medical emergency vehicle is necessary. If one approaches an emergency vehicle parked along the roadway one should change the lane as the vehicle may not move and the driver may also waste his or her time also one should also slow down his or her speed while approaching the vehicle as most of the emergency vehicle are in rush to reach the hospital so the driver should maintain some distance with the medical emergency vehicle.
