### Regenerative Cycle with Two Feedwater Heaters

The diagram illustrates a regenerative cycle with two feedwater heaters. The system comprises several key components, namely a steam generator, a series of turbines, closed and open feedwater heaters, a condenser, and pumps.

#### Detailed Description:

1. **Steam Generator:**
- Steam is generated with a mass flow rate of \(\dot{m}_1 = 75 \, \text{kg/s}\), temperature \(T_1 = 520^\circ \text{C}\), and pressure \(p_1 = 14 \, \text{MPa}\).

2. **Turbines:**
- The high-pressure steam enters a series of turbines, where work (\(\dot{W}_t\)) is extracted as the steam expands through the stages (labeled 2 and 3).

3. **Condenser:**
- After passing through the turbines, the steam is directed into a condenser operating at 10 kPa, where it condenses into a saturated liquid state at point 5.

4. **Pump 1:**
- The condensate is then pressurized by Pump 1 to the open heater (0.3 MPa) labeled as state 6.

5. **Open Heater:**
- The open heater operates at 0.3 MPa. The saturated liquid leaves at state 7 and enters Pump 2.

6. **Pump 2:**
- Pressurizes the liquid to a higher pressure of 1.0 MPa, where it enters the closed heater at state 8.

7. **Closed Heater:**
- Operates at 1.0 MPa, further heating the liquid.
- Steam entering the closed heater is extracted at point 9 with \(T_9 = 170^\circ \text{C}\) and \(p_9 = 14 \, \text{MPa}\).

8. **Trap:**
- Unused condensate from the closed heater is directed towards a trap before rejoining the cycle at state 10.

9. **Cycle Continuation:**
- The heated, high-pressure liquid then returns to the steam generator to complete the cycle.

#### Note:

This regenerative cycle's primary advantage is improved thermal efficiency by preheating the feedwater using extracted steam from various turbine stages. The preheating reduces the thermal load on
