Steam at 6.2 MPa / T = 420 degrees is supplied by a boiler
to a turbine where it is bled out for feedwater heating at
a pressure of 2.5 MPa. It continues to expand at a
pressure of 1.2 MPa where it will undergo reheating until
it reaches 330 degrees. It is extracted to a condensing
unit at a pressure of 0.05 MPa. If mass of steam is at 1 kg
per second, find the following:

A) Total heat added in KW

B) Turbine work in KW
C) Total pumping power in KW
D) Heat rejected in KW
E) Mass of extracted steam in the open heater in kg/s
F) Work Net in KW
G) Cycle efficiency

 5 kg/s of steam at 8 MPa and 545°C enters the turbine
and expands to 3 MPa where steam is extracted for open
feedwater heating, at the same pressure the remainder is
withdrawn and reheated to 450°C. Expansion occurs
again at 1.2 MPa where steam is extracted again for
feedwater heating. The final expansion now occurs to a
condenser pressure of 20 kPa. Determine the following:
