1. (a) In a single- heater regenerative cycle the steam enters the turbine at 30 bar 400 C and the
exhaust pressure is 0.10 bars. The feed water heater is a direct contact type which operates at 5
bars. Find (Considering one heater method) 1.The efficiency and the steam rate of cycle.2. The
increase in mean temperature of heat addition and efficiency and the steam rate as compared to
the Rankin cycle (without regeneration).

(b) Give the classification of boilers?

2. (A) Explain the simple Rankin cycle in detail with T-s and h-s diagrams

(B) A steam power station uses the following cycle. Steam at boiler outlet 150 bar, 550C, Reheat
at 40 bar to 550C, condenser at 0.1 bar. Assuming ideal processes, estimate the quality of steam
at turbine exhaust, cycle efficiency.

3. (A) Draw the layout of reheats cycle with T-s and h-s diagram.

(B) A simple Rankin cycle works between pressures 28 bar and 0.06 bar, the initial condition of
steam being dry saturated. Calculate the cycle efficiency, work ratio and specific steam
consumption

4. (A) Define dryness fraction and Draw T-S and h-s diagrams for regenerative cycle?
