Design a Rankine cycle with one reheater and one open feedwater heater so that the cycle has a high efficiency thermal efficiency. The maximum pressure and temperature in the system are 20 MPa and 580°C, and the condenser pressure is 20 kPa. The isentropic efficiency of the turbine is 0.82, and the isentropic efficiency of the pumps is 0.69. The net power to be developed from the cycle is 450 MW.
