Question: A steam cycle with H . P & L . P turbines separated by a water extractor. Live steam conditions 4 0 0 C ,

A steam cycle with H.P & L.P turbines separated by a water extractor. Live
steam conditions 400C,70 bar. Pressure at entry to extractor 1 bar.
High pressure turbine internal efficiency is 86%.
Low pressure turbine internal efficiency is 75%.
Estimated extraction efficiency 50% with 0.34 bar loss of pressure in the
water extraction process. If the Condenser pressure is 0.034 bar:
Draw a box-diagram of the cycle.
Sketch the cycle on a T-s diagram.
Calculate the thermal efficiency of the cycle.
