Calculate thermal efficiency-heat rate-steam-water massflow

Reference no: EM13548248

A geothermal power plant is supplied with water at a well bottom temperature of 225 degrees C and a pressure of 8 MPa. The fluid flows into a flash separator maintained at 40 KPa. The turbine exit pressure is 10KPa. The overall efficiency of the turbine is 0.83. Calculate the thermal efficiency, the heat rate and the steam and water massflow rates required for an outputof 10MW

Beam of electron is incident on crystal with in-plane atomic : A beam of electrons is incident on a crystal with in-plane atomic spacing D = 2.2 Å and out-of-plane spacing C = 1.55 Å, where C and D have the same meaning as on the handouts and class notes.

Compute the de broglie wavelengths of electron-photon : Compute the de Broglie wavelengths of (a) an electron, (b) a proton, and (c) a Au nucleus (A=197 g/mole) with a kinetic energy of 20 eV, and these same particles (parts d, e, & f) if they have a kinetic energy of 10 GeV. (Relativity is important f..

What wavelengths of light would be given off in transitions : A He+ ion is placed in an excited state, so that its remaining electron occupies the n=5 state. The electron can make a transition to any lower energy state, thereby giving off a photon. What wavelengths of light would be given off in these transi..

What is the difference in cyclotron frequencies for two ions : A cyclotron is sometimes used for carbon dating. Carbon-14 and carbon-12 ions are obtained from a sample of the material to be dated and are accelerated in the cyclotron. If the cyclotron has a magnetic field of magnitude 2.50 T, what is the diffe..
