Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a simple combined cycle model that integrates Brayton and Rankine cycles. What components would you include, and how would you ensure maximum efficiency?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think creatively about component interactions.

Question 2

If a combined cycle plant outputs 120 MW with a Brayton cycle contributing 80 MW and the Rankine cycle contributing the rest, what is the efficiency of the entire plant if it uses 200 MW of thermal energy?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Revisit the efficiency calculation formula you learned.
