Water is the working fluid in a modified Rankine cycle with superheat and reheat. Water as superheated vapor enters the high-pressure stage turbine at 60 bar and 440 C and leaves at 5 bar as liquid-vapor mixture with a quality of xa-0.98. It is then reheated to 400 °C at the same pressure of 5 bar before entering the second stage turbine where it expands to a pressure of 0.1 bar and a mixture quality of x0.96. The condenser pressure...
