An apology would be in order, but isn't really expected.



Yes it is -from you! I said the inlet pressure it was 9 psi to correct
your statement that the inlet was at vacuum. You then said I was wrong
and it was 11psi. So you no agree that I was correct all along. Now
let's deal with your other assertion that there was no steam bypass for
the turbine shall we?

You are busted.
