REHEAT CYCLE

BOX ANSWERS OR NO POINTS

Grade = scores/13 answers

A reheat cycle with 2 stages of reheating is executed with 1 kg/s of steam expanding initially from 20 MPa and 540oC. The
two reheaters pressures are 3.8 MPa and 0.97 MPa, and the steam leaves each reheater at 540oC. Condensation occurs
at 60oC.
