SET C 1.

Select a suitable generator speed and type of runner for the following data: Horsepower: 55,000 Net Head, ft: 465 Electrical frequency: 25 2. Determine the maximum elevation of the runner above for (or minimum below) tailwater level for the following data: Type of runner: Propeller Elevation above sea level, ft: 4,350 Water temperature, F: 65 Horsepower: 7,000 Net Head, ft 44 Actual speed, rpm 180 3. A double-flash geothermal steam power plant operates from a reservoir at 300C. The condenser temperature is 50C. Secondary steam from the flash vessel is mixed with the primary steam at the plenum between the high- and low-pressure sections of the dualadmission turbine. Neglect pressure losses in surface piping and use the Baumann rule for the turbine efficiencies. Determine the specific work output (in kJ/kg of geofluid) if the separator and flash vessel operate at 230C and 140C, respectively. 4. A single-flash geothermal steam plant receives geofluid from a reservoir having a temperature of 240C. The condenser temperature is 50C. Neglect pressure losses in surface pipelines. Use the Baumann rule for the turbine efficiency. Determine the specific work output (in kJ/kg of geofluid) if the separator operates at 170C.
