Analysis of Reheat Cycle • 1—2: Isentropic Pumping • 2 –3 Constant (High)pressure Heat addition • 3 –4 Isentropic expansion in HP turbine. • 4—5 Constant (Low) Pressure Reheating. • 5 – 6 Isentropic expansion in LP turbine. • 6 – 1 Constant pressure condensation.
Analysis of Reheat Cycle • Consider reheat cycle as a combination of Rankine cycle and horn cycle. • Cycle 1-2-3-4-5-6-1 = Cycle 1-2-3-4-4’-1 + Cycle 4’-4-5-6-4’. • Therefore, 4’ 6
Horn Cycle: 4’ – 4 Isentropic Compression. 4 – 5 Isobaric Heat Addition. 5 – 6 Isentropic Expansion 6 – 4’ Isobaric(thermal) cooling. 4’ 6
Select appropriate reheat pressure, pRH, such that left hand side is maximum.
pmax= 15 MPa Tmax= 550 0C Tsat= 342.20C
Procedure to Determine Optimum Reheat Pressure • Calculate the efficiency of Rankine cycle, hRankine. • Calculate mean effective temperature of heat addition, Tm,in using • Find out pressure corresponding to Tm,in and entropy at HP turbine exit. • Add reheating at this pressure and calculate efficiency of the Reheat Cycle. • Repeat above steps for few iterations.
