It is required to analyze the operation of an Electric Power Plant called Ecom Energy S.A, the main operator and manager of the plant need to hire a mechanical engineer to calculate the following: a) The reheating temperature so that the output of turbine 1 is saturated steam (high quality mixtures are not allowed). b) For this reheating process, the total power output of the turbines must be calculated. c) The total heat transfer of the boiler. d) Make the T vr S Diagram, include all possible states (1,2,3,4…) and temperature and pressure data. Ecom Energy produces steam at 3 MPa, 600°C in the boiler. In addition, it maintains the condenser at 45°C by transferring 10 MW as heat output. In turbine 1 an expansion is carried out up to 500 kPa and then the flow is reheated, followed by expansion in low pressure turbine 2.
