01: Steam enters the first turbine at 15.0 MPa and 600°C. The pressure in the condenser is 20.0 kPa. While some steam is extracted from the high-pressure turbine at 5 MPa and sent to the closed feedwater heater, the remaining steam is reheated to 600°C. The extracted steam is condensed as saturated liquid at 5.0 MPa and trapped to the open feedwater heater. Some steam is extracted from the lower-pressure turbine at 1.0 MPa and sent to the open feedwater...
