how can calculate how much steam is to be required for generation of 1MW electricty?..

Answer / shwan osman

it's calculate by this equation(p=m(h2-h1))
h= enthlpy
m=mass
p=power

p=1MW
m=?
h2=calculate by temp.& pressure steam enter turbine
h1=calculate by temp.& pressure steam exit turbine

how can calculate how much steam is to be required for generation of 1MW electricty?..

Answer / abhishek giri

steam rate=power generated in turbine/(change in specific
enthalpy of steam while leaving turbine);
henc,steamrequired=(steam rate * time)

how can calculate how much steam is to be required for generation of 1MW electricty?..

Answer / luis

That is just an approximation. It depends on the enthalpy
of the steam, i.e. pressure of the steam and the degree of
superheat and/or reheat added. A ton/hour of steam at 900
psig and 375C will generate less MW than the same ton/hour
at 2850 psig and 590C. Also depends on the generator
efficiency which is generally assumed to be 80-85%.

how can calculate how much steam is to be required for generation of 1MW electricty?..

Answer / chaitanya pithawa

no it is theoritical method,
but in real case, we should check the turbine by varying the
speed of the steam and angle of the nozzle,so 1 MW power is
to be generated,at that time we can check the steam velocity
and from that we can calculate the volume of the steam.

how can calculate how much steam is to be required for generation of 1MW electricty?..

Answer / tejeswararao

That is depend up on turbine design if it is seimens turbine 3.8 tons more than enough if it is triveni turbine it may 4.5tons like that and it may vary as per load curve
