Question: ( 2 5 points ) A steam power plant operates on a reheat - regenerative Rankine cycle with a total mass flow rate of 2

(25 points) A steam power plant operates on a reheat-regenerative Rankine cycle with a
total mass flow rate of 2kgs. Steam enters the high-pressure turbine at 10 MPa and
650C. Some steam is extracted at this pressure to heat the feedwater in an open FWH.
The rest of the steam is reheated to 600C and is expanded in the low-pressure turbine to
the condenser pressure of 100kPa. The pump and turbine efficiencies are given as 86%
and 93%, respectively. You may neglect pressure drop across the boiler and condenser.
(a)JUST sketch the cycle on a T-s diagram with respect to saturation lines PLEASE.
