A simple ideal Rankine cycle with water as the working fluid operates between the pressure limits of
Question:
A simple ideal Rankine cycle with water as the working fluid operates between the pressure limits of 4 MPa in the boiler and 20 kPa in the condenser and a turbine inlet temperature of 700°C. Calculate the exergy destruction in each of the components of the cycle when heat is being rejected to the atmospheric air at 15°C and heat is supplied from an energy reservoir at 750°C.
Step by Step Answer:
The exergy destructions associated with each of the processes of a Rankine cycle are to be deter...View the full answer

In this video, the concept of pressure has been explained. The bottle is filled up with water, remove the pipe, and now you can see the clear flow of water from the holes due to liquid pressure.You can see that the second layer is holding the weight of the first layer and the third layer holding the weight of both upper layers, that’s why liquid flows out wider from the third as compared to the first two.At the first hole, water doesn’t roll along the walls; it flows out at an angle.At the second hole, you’ll see that the water flows out at a wider angle as compared to the first hole.At the third hole, we can see that the flow of water is much wider/greater than the other holes.This proves that the pressure at the bottom of the bottle is much more than the pressure at the top layers.
