VAPOUR POWER CYCLES RANKINE CYCLE

How can we increase the efficiency of Rankine Cycle?

CARNOT ENGINE

CARNOT REFRIGERATOR /REVERSE CARNOT CYCLE

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CARNOT CYCLE

It is a theoretical cycle. It gives maximum efficiency between two temperature difference

Heat is added and rejected at constant temperature.

RANKINE CYCLE This one is a practical cycle of steam engine and turbine.

Heat is added and rejected at constant pressure.

It has highest efficiency between two temperature Rankine cycle has lower efficiency than Carnot differences. cycle. Carnot cycle uses air as the working substance.

Rankine cycle uses water as working substance.

Carnot cycle is ideal cycle for heat engine.

It is ideal cycle for vapor power engine.
