Question - Consider an ideal steam regenerative Rankine cycle with two feedwater heaters, one closed and one
open. Steam enters the turbine at 12.5 MPa and 550°C and exhausts to the condenser at 10 kPa.
Steam is extracted from the turbine at 0.8 MPa for the closed feedwater heater and at 0.3 MPa for the
open one. The feedwater is heated to the condensation temperature of the extracted steam in the
closed feedwater heater. The extracted steam leaves the closed feedwater heater as a saturated
liquid, which is subsequently throttled to the open feedwater heater. Show the cycle on a T-s diagram
with respect to saturation lines, and determine
(a) The mass flow rate of steam through the boiler for a net power output of 250 MW and
(b) The thermal
