IMPROVE STEAM TURBINE EFFICIENCY BY USE OF REHEAT RANKINE CYCLE

Steam are a major energy consumer. Optimising process operating conditions can considerably improve turbine water rate, which in turn will significantly reduce energy re quirement. Various operating parameters affect condensing and back pressure turbine steam consumption and efficiency.This paper cantaint the effect of opertating condition of turbine back pressure turbine inlet steam tempreture and adavantage of improving inlet steam tempreture by reheat cycle on the efficiency of steam turbine and total energy production of power plant
