Introduction
In any thermal power generation plant, heat energy converts into mechanical work. Then it is converted to electrical energy by rotating a generator which produces electrical energy. Heat is derived from various energy sources like fossil fuels, nuclear fusion of radioactive elements and geothermal energy.
Potential energy stored in water also can produce mechanical work, and then mechanical work to electrical energy, this conversion of energy is commonly known as hydropower generation. Kinetic energy of wind and solar radiation are the other sources of energy that can be used to produce electrical energy by conversion.

Efficiency
The overall efficiency of a thermal power plant is the combination of two efficiencies.
Combustion efficiency or the source efficiencyThe proportion of the available energy transferred as heat to the working fluid.
Thermodynamic Cycle efficiency
This indicates the proportion of the heat supplied to system which is finally converted to useful mechanical work. As the efficiency can never be 100% according the Second Law of thermodynamics, our concern is to raise the efficiency as much as possible. The efficiency depends on the nature of thermodynamic processes that constitute a cycle.

Carnot Cycle
Carnot Cycle is a reversible thermodynamic cycle comprising of 4 processes.
1 -2 Reversible Isothermal heat addition
2 – 3 Reversible adiabatic expansion (isentropic)
3 – 4 Reversible Isothermal heat rejection
4 -1 Reversible Adiabatic compression (isentropic)
The temperature –entropy diagram (T-S diagram) is the best form of cycle that gives the maximum efficiency

Carnot efficiency
Corollary 1 of Carnot's Theorem:All reversible heat engines operating between the same two heat reservoirs must have the same efficiency.
Corollary 2 of Carnot's Theorem:The efficiency of a reversible heat engine is a function only of the respective temperatures of the hot and cold reservoirs. It can be evaluated by replacing the ratio of heat transfers QL and QH by the ratio of temperatures TL and TH of the respective heat
reservoirs.

Vapor power cycles
![Page 10: Power cycles 1](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/54be11b84a79590d788b45c8/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Introduction to vapor power cycles
In converting heat to work it is necessary to have a substance called working fluid to “store” energy and release it in the form of mechanical work. Such a fluid should not upset the system and its components that are needed to bring about this heat and work transfer. You are aware of that it is the water (or steam) we mostly use as the working substance in thermal power plant. The thermodynamic processes undergone by the working substance with the efficiency will be discussed in detail in the next session.
Although the Carnot Cycle is applicable to vapor power cycles, because of the constant temperature heat absorption and rejection (latent heat), there are practical difficulties to exactly match the Carnot Cycle.
![Page 11: Power cycles 1](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/54be11b84a79590d788b45c8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Enthalpy changes
In all thermodynamic power cycles we are concerned with changes in enthalpy rather than the enthalpy as a property. Therefore it is convenient to use enthalpy-entropy diagram, commonly known as Mollier diagram of steam (h-s chart) in our calculations to determine heat and work transfer, rather than using tables of thermodynamic properties.

Rankine cycle
Rankine cycle is ideal cycle for vapour power cycles
The Rankine Cycle is similar to the Carnot Cycle, but the Rankine Cycle is much more practical because the working fluid typically exists as a single phase (liquid or vapor) for the two pressure change processes.
![Page 25: Power cycles 1](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/54be11b84a79590d788b45c8/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Processes in simple Rankine cycle
5 to 1: water is heated until it reaches saturation (phase change / boiling point) in a constant-pressure process.
1 to 2: Once saturation is reached, further heat transfer takes place at constant pressure, until the working fluid is completely vaporized.
2 to 3: The vapour is expanded isentropically through a turbine to produce work. The vapour (steam) pressure falls as it passes through the turbine and exits at low pressure.
3 to 4: The working fluid is routed through a condenser, where it condenses (phase change) into liquid (water).
4 to 5: The working fluid is pumped back into the boiler.

Rankine cycle with superheat steam
To ensure that steam leaving the turbine is sufficiently dry, in practical steam power plant superheat steam is used instead of saturated steam to the turbine input. However, we need to ensure that wet steam enters the condenser to get the maximum turbine output.
![Page 28: Power cycles 1](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/54be11b84a79590d788b45c8/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Advantages of super heating
• Average temperature at which heat is supplied increased by superheating the steam and therefore ideal cycle efficiency is increased.
• The specific steam consumption is markedly reduced as the net work per unit mass of steam is high.
• Since the requirement of steam per unit of energy (kg/kWh) is less, the complexity added by introducing the superheating system is compensated by a smaller boiler.
![Page 29: Power cycles 1](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/54be11b84a79590d788b45c8/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
There is an additional reason for using superheat steam in practice. If you closely look at the T-S diagram below, higher boiler pressures tends to give wetter steam at turbine exhaust, which is not desirable. Therefore superheating becomes necessary to get dried steam at the turbine exhaust.
![Page 30: Power cycles 1](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/54be11b84a79590d788b45c8/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Example 2
Steam turbine plant operates on Rankine Cycle with steam entering the turbine at 40bar, 350oC and leaving at 0.05bar. Steam leaving the turbine condenses to saturated liquid inside condenser. Feed pump pumps saturated liquid into the boiler.
Determine the net work per kg of steam and the cycle efficiency assuming all processes to be ideal.

Isentropic efficiency - Turbine
The desired output from a turbine is the work output. Hence, the definition of isentropic efficiency of a turbine is the ratio of the actual work output of the turbine to the work output of the turbine if the turbine undergoes an isentropic process between the same inlet and exit pressures.
