I know the question seems long but it is just asking for the temp-entropy (T-s) diagram of the system.

(3 points) The Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System is a concentrated solar thermal plant (CSP) inthe Mojave Desert. Major investors in Ivanpah are NRG Energy and Google. In a CSP, mirrors are usedto focus the sun's rays, and heat is transferred into a steam cycle '. Figure 2 illustrates a typical CSPplant developed by Siemens. Superheated steam from the solar steam generator enters a high-pressureturbine. It partially expands before being extracted and re-heated in the re-heater. The re-heat steamis then admitted to a low-pressure turbine where it expands to the condenser pressure. There are twoextraction valves in the low-pressure turbine: The first valve extracts to the deaerating feed tank; thesecond valve extracts to the low-pressure feed heater.
