An ideal reheat Rankine cycle operates between the pressure limits of $$10$$ $$kPa$$ and $$8$$ $$MPa,$$ with reheat being done at $$4$$ $$MPa.$$ The temperature of steam at the inlets of both turbines is $${500^ \circ }C$$ and the enthalpy of steam is $$3185$$ $$kJ/kg$$ at the exit of the high pressure turbine and $$2247$$ $$kJ/kg$$ at the exit of low pressure turbine. The enthalpy of water at the exit from the pump is $$191$$ $$kJ/kg$$. Use the following table for relevant data.
Disregarding the pump work, the cycle efficiency (in percentage ) is ________________

Steam with specific enthalpy $$\left( h \right)\,\,3214\,\,kJ/kg$$ enters an adiabatic turbine operating at steady state with a flow rate $$10kg/s.$$ As it expands, at a point where $$h$$ is $$2920$$ $$kJ/kg,$$ $$1.5$$ $$kg/s$$ is extracted for heating purposes. The remaining $$8.5kg/s$$ further expands to the turbine exit, where $$h=2374$$ $$kJ/kg$$. Neglecting changes in kinetic and potential energies, the net power output (in $$kW$$) of the turbine is __________.
