Design of a cycle of steam power demonstrated in the tesla turbine

Abstract

The cycle of steam power demonstrated in the Tesla Turbine is based on a scientific method that uses a phase field design. The phases are as follows: selection of the information, classification of the information, design of the process, calculations of the required steps, economic proposal, synthesis and conclusions. The simulation also shows how a cycle of steam power works under certain conditions of operation. In fact, working with a mass flow of 5 kg and a power resistance of 650W helps to obtain a time of evaporation of the water and generate a steam pressure in the system used to move the Telsa Turbine. Based on the data collected from a pump of 20, 26 kJ/kg, we can generate a steam quality of 71% with an entrance heat of 2815.50 kJ/kg and an exit heat of 1684.44 kJ/kg. The turbine efficiency represents a percentage of 40.17 which is ideal when using a Rankine cycle. The main goal of the project adopted for the investigation is to respond to the necessity to connect students with tools not only theoretical, but also practical that help reinforce their process of learning, thus helping them to understand and manage potential issues that can occur in the real world.
