Water is the working fluid in a Rankine cycle. Steam exits the steam generator at 1500 lbf/in.2 and 1100°F. Due to heat transfer and frictional effects in the line connecting the steam generator and turbine, the pressure and temperature at the turbine inlet are reduced to 1400 lbf/in.2 and 1000°F, respectively.
