What is open cycle and closed cycle?

In an open cycle gas turbine, the gases that are produced by combustion go directly into the atmosphere, though the heat produced can sometimes be reclaimed. In a closed cycle gas turbine, the gases produced are reused and are not emitted into the atmosphere.

Open cycle arrangement of a gas turbine?

1. The working gas is compressed in compressor and directed towards the heat exchanger (Air heater), where heat is being added to the compressed gas before it enters the turbine. 2. The heat is supplied by an external source such as a nuclear reactor, or some other heat source. 3. The hot gasses then expend and accelerate through a nozzle which drive the guide vanes of the turbine and then shaft. 4. At last, the remaining exhaust gasses pass through a cooler and directed towards the compressor inlet.


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.

the engine will never fully warm up, and will not produce heat to the cab area for very long during cold weather


Your 1992 Pontiac gran prix does not heat up quickly?

If you are talking about the engine temp then more than likely your thermostat is stuck open or if you recently changed it the heat range is not proper causing it to open prematurely and not allow the engine to heat up. Change the thermostat and this should take care of the problem. Hope this helps. "G"
