(a) Write the First Law of Thermodynamics in its general, control-volume form. (Hint: This will involve terms with
various !̇! )
O
(d) On cycle thermal efficiency: Increase Decrease No effect Could go either way
Comparing the closed-feedwater heater (CFH) regeneration to the open-feedwater heater (OFH) regeneration (circle one
or write down your answer)?
(e) The CFH itself is a simpler device than the OFH: True
O
False Neither true nor false
A nonideal (nonisentropic work devices) Rankine cycle with closed-feedwater regeneration is shown below. The inlet to
the first turbine is a superheated vapor far out away from the vapor dome.
Name:
(h)
Draw a BIG T-s diagram showing all the states in this cycle. Include any isentropic states in addition to the actual
states.

(i) Write an expression for calculating the cycle thermal efficiency, knowing that generally
%̇"#$ &'$('$
#≡
&̇)"('$
This expression should include enthalpies of the various states (using the numbering system from the schematic) as
well as anything else you believe is relevant (don’t just write a bunch of %̇ and &̇).
