Project 2 - Rankine cycle Simulator

Aim:-

Writing a code to simulate rankine cycle.

Theory:-

The Rankine cycle is a model used to predict the performance of steam turbine systems.Rankine cycle consits of an operating fluid which continuously gets evaporated and condensed in a close loop.

Components used:-

1)Boiler for generating steam at constant pressure

2)A turbine or engine in which steam will expand isentropically and work is done.

3)A condenser in which heat is removed from the exhaust steam and it is completely converted into water at constant pressure.

4)A pump which raises the pressure of liquid water to boiler pressure and pumps it in to the boiler for converting into steam.

Basic Rankine Cycle Simulator

Process:

1-2: Isentropic compression in pump

2-3: Constant pressure heat addition in boiler

3-4: Isentropic expansion in turbine

4-1: Constant pressure heat rejection in condenser

code:

disp('RANKINE CYCLE SIMULATOR');
disp('1-2 = isentropic expansion in the turbine');
disp('2-3 = constant pressure heat rejection by the condensor');
disp('3-4 = isentropic compression in the pump');
disp('4-1 = constant pressure heat addition by the boiler');

%To type the inputs and getting the text as given in the problem

t1 = input('enter the temperature at the turbine inlet (in degree celsius):');

p1=input('enter the pressure at the turbine inlet (in bar):');
