then expands in the Low Pressure Turbine, to a pressure of 0.05 bar and dryness
fraction of 0.99.

The condensate leaves the condenser at a temperature of 27°C.

Bled steam enters the surface feed heater at a pressure of 5 bar and temperature
of 230°C, it leaves as a saturated liquid.

The feed water leaves the heater at a temperature of 151.8°C.
