Q3 In large steam power plants, the feedwater is frequently heated in closed feedwater heaters, which are basically heat exchangers, by steam extracted from the turbine at some stage. Steam enters the feedwater heater at 1.6 MPa and 250 °C and leaves as saturated liquid at the same pressure. Feedwater enters the heater at 4 MPa and 30 oC and leaves 10 °C below the exit temperature of the steam.
