Normally In Coal based thermal power plant(Either Sub or Super Critical) 60% Bypass is adopted based on condenser heat load calculation keeping 0.9 as Condenser Cleanliness Factor.
If Some designer wants to bypass 100% of generated steam, it is also possible. In fact most Nuclear Steam Turbine adopt same for same reactor shutdown process.
Increase in % capacity of bypass system increases capital cost involved in condenser cooling surface, Extraction pumps, LP Heaters, Pipe Sizing etc.

what is water consumption rate of water to condense one ton steam in condensor.
