6. In a combined reheat and regenerative steam plant, the steam conditions at inlet of the turbine are 170 bar and 600C. After expansion through the high pressure stage turbine to dry saturated steam, it is reheated to 500 C and expanded through the second stage low pressure turbine to the condenser pressure of 0.035 bar. Through the first stage turbine an amount of steam is bleeded for feed heating. Determine the following: The amount of bleed steam, The bleed steam temperature, The net power output per kg of boiler steam, The cycle efficiency. 7. A generating station is to give a power output of 200 MW. The superheat output pressure of the boiler is 170 bar and the temperature is 600C. After expansion through the first stage turbine to a pressure of 40 bar, 15 % of the steam is extracted for feed heating, the remainder is reheated to 600C and is expanded through the second stage turbine to a condenser pressure of 0.035 bar. For preliminary calculations it is assumed that the actual cycle will have an efficiency of 70 %. The generator mechanical and electrical efficiency is 90 %. Calculate the maximum continuous rating of the boiler in kg per hour.
