Mechanical Engineering Thermodynamics - Lec 20, pt 2 of 7: Rankine Cycle with Reheat

[@CharlieSolis]

HI thank you for your video! What determines the number of reheat cycles that can be done? If, let’s say we didn’t have to worry about the water droplets deforming the blades, to decrease efficiency, could the reheat be done more times? Is there more efficiency loss with the formation of the water droplets also other than the blade deformation I guess is my real question? Do the water droplet formations cause a velocity decrease in the overall flow?

I am learning so much from you! Thankyou so much

Thanks a lot, but what if we have two pumps in this case?

[@tomworkout5330]

I like the way u explain, thanks a lot.

how about PV diagram renkine cyle with reheat ?

Hi Ron, great lectures! I'm pretty much learning my chemical engineering processes course from you :).
Quick question though. When you said that one reheat is only typically employed for economic reasons, is that due to the small operating range of water and just that you don't gain much in efficiency by reheating a second time?

kevin ,m also student of chemical eng,how i can contact you,to discuss with yo about subjects,

Due to economics means expensive?

[@Victornemeth]

and not pratical

[@AhmedHady92]

why reheating pressure is usually between 0.2 & 0.3 times the initial pressure ?

[@akashgaur2118]

high pressure will increase the moisture content at the turbine exhaust thus reheat pressure is optimised
