The HP turbine drives the HP compressor, and the LP turbine drives the LP compressor and the generator. The exhaust from the LP turbine through a heat exchanger which transfer heat to the air leaving the HP compressor. There is a reheat combustion chamber between turbine stages which raises the gas temperature to 8000C, which is also the gas temperature at entry to the HP turbine. The overall pressure ratio is 30, each compressor having the same pressure ratio, and the air temperature at entry to the unit is 300C.
