Which risk increases within a closed Rankine cycle if feedwater heater efficiency degrades?

💡 Explanation

Increased condenser thermal load results because degraded feedwater heating increases moisture at the turbine exhaust; this is driven by conservation of energy, therefore increased heat rejection rather than higher-efficiency or altered blade stress under these operating constraints.
