In a reheat cycle, steam at 165 bar
and 600°C is supplied to the turbine.
The steam at 18.5 bar during
the expansion is withdrawn and
reheated to 490 degrees * C Then
the expansion is further carried out
to condenser pressure of 0.03 bar.
(i) Determine the thermal efficiency
and (ii) Steam flow rate if the output
from the turbine is 60 MW. Assume
all ideal processes.
