1 kg of steam at initial conditions of 5.1 MPa and 370 °C expands in a turbine until it becomes saturated. It is withdrawn and reheated to 340°C. After further expansion in the turbine to 160 , part of the steam is extracted for feedwater heating. The remaining steam expands to the condenser pressure of 0.018 MPa.
