A smaller power plant produces steam at 3 MPa, 600°C in the boiler. It keeps the condenser at 45°C by transfer of 10 MW out as heat transfer. The first turbine section expands to 500 kPa and then flow is reheated followed by the expansion in the low-pressure turbine. Find the reheat temperature so the turbine output is saturated vapor. For this reheat find the total turbine power output and the boiler heat transfer.
