As shown in the figure below, the conditions at the inlet to the first turbine stage are 1600 Ibf/in.2, 1200°F and the steam is reheated to a temperature of T3 = 800°F between the turbine stages at a pressure of p3 = P2 = 400 Ibf/in.2 P3 = Pr T3 Reheat section P2 Steam generator Turbine I Turbine 2 PI = 1600 Ibflin." T = 1200°F 4+ P4 P6=P = 1600 Ibflin.? 6- Condenser Pump Ps = P4 X =0 (saturated liquid) For a condenser pressure of ps = P4 = 9 Ibf/in.2, determine: (a) the quality of the steam at the second-stage turbine exit. (b) the cycle percent thermal efficiency.
