Best Answer

The condenser is used to lower the temperature of the working fluid. This lowers the pressure and condensates any left over steam, from the turbine, so it will be purely liquid before entering the pump.

What are four major components of the Rankine cycle?

The four major components of the rankine cycle are as follows: 1. boiler 2. turbine 3. condenser 4. pump i.e. in short (B-T-C-P)


Difference between rankine and brayton cycle?

Brayton cycle: It is open cycle. Rankine cycle: It's close cycle. Brayton cycle: Mostly used in gas turbine engine. Rankine cycle: Mostly used in power generation plant. Brayton cycle: Resemble less to Carnot cycle. Rankine cycle: Resemble is more to Carnot cycle.


What is modified rankine cycle?

modified rankine cycle basically same as rankine cycle but main difference is inisentropic expansion process.we are nt expanding the styeam completely.steam is expanded up to certain level and after that it dumped in condenser due to high vacuum in condenser.the work losses by restricting the expansion of steam is very less which can be neglected.so that the stroke length of cylinder is reduced and the capitalcost of engine also reduced.engine performance is also good

What is the difference between the Carnot cycle and the Rankine Cycle?

carnot cycle is a very ideal cycle that isn't practical at all , 'cause we add and reject heat isothermally , a wet mixture enters the turbine so it'll cause pitting and erosion and a wet mixture enters the pump , and the pump can't deal with a 2 phases fluid rankine cycle is a practical cycle but with a very low efficiency so the main difference lies in the adding and rejecting of heat


Why efficiency of rankine cycle is more in winter than in summer?

there is more heat loss..


What are the relative advantage of Rankine Cycle over Carnot Cycle in thermal power plants?

Rankine cycle is original cycle... where Carnot is hypothetical one...in this process we use compressere insted of pump which shows that the condensation process is not fully completed. ref:engineering thermodynamics autor:p.k.nag tata macgraw hill publication
