The values of enthalpy of steam at the inlet and outlet of a steam turbine in a Rankine cycle are 2800 kJ/kg and 1800 kJ/kg respectively. Neglecting pump work, the specific steam consumption in kg/kW hour is
-
- 3.60
- 0.36
- 0.06
- 0.01
Correct Option: A
41. Work done by the turbine
W = 2800 – 1800 = 1000 kJ/kg
= 1000 kW-s/kg
| Specific fuel consumption = | × 3600 | |
| 1000 |
= 3.6 kg/kW – hr
