A reheat cycle with two stages of reheating is executed with steam expanding initially from 200 bar (20 Mpaa) and 540 deg C. The 2 reheater pressures are 40 bar (4 Mpaa) and 10 bar (1 Mpaa) and the steam leaves each reheater at 540 deg C. Steam is bled in between two reheating sessions at a pressure equal to 20 and 15 bars into 2 open feedwater heaters. Condensation occurs at 60 deg C. All expansion and compression efficiencies are 90 %. There is a total of 10.3 kg/sec of steam (total mass flow rate m) circulated in the cycle.
