Abstract

A power generation system in which one or more vapor generators are provided for driving a turbine having a relatively high pressure section and at least one relatively low pressure section. A reheater is disposed between the high pressure turbine section and the low pressure turbine section and its outlet is connected to the latter section. The steam outlet of the vapor generator is connected directly to the high pressure turbine section and directly to the reheater, and the outlet of the reheater is connected directly to the low pressure turbine section and directly to the condenser.
