Abstract
Low pressure steam leaving a turbine (108) is used to preheat a major part of the feed water to a boiler (107) to a higher temperature than the balance of the feed water. The preheated part of the feed water is then introduced into the boiler (107) at a higher temperature zone than the remainder of the feed water.
