A steam power plant design consists of an ideal Rankine cycle with regeneration. Steam enters Turbine 1 at P1 and T1 at the rate of m1 and exits at P2. A fraction (y') of the steam exiting Turbine 1 is diverted to a closed feedwater heater while the remainder enters Turbine 2. A portion (y'') of the steam exiting Turbine 2 at P3 is diverted to an open feedwater heater while the remainder enters Turbine 3. The exit of Turbine...

A combined cycle gas turbine / vapor power plant uses the turbine exhaust as the energy source for the boiler. Each power system uses a single turbine. The gas power system is modeled as an ideal air-standard Brayton cycle. The vapor power system is modeled as an ideal Rankine cycle.
