A steam power plant operates on the ideal reheat Rankine cycle. Steam enters the high pressure turbine

Question:

A steam power plant operates on the ideal reheat Rankine cycle. Steam enters the high pressure turbine at 8 MPa and 500°C and leaves at 3 MPa. Steam is then reheated at constant pressure to 500°C before it expands to 20 kPa in the low-pressure turbine. Determine the turbine work output, in kJ/kg, and the thermal efficiency of the cycle. Also, show the cycle on a T-s diagram with respect to saturation lines.
