- Steam enters the high-pressure turbine of a steam power plant that operates on the ideal reheat Rankine cycle at 700 psia and 900°F and leaves as saturated vapor. Steam is then reheated to 800°F before it expands to a pressure of 1 psia. Heat is transferred to the steam in the boiler at a rate of 6 × 104 Btu/s.
