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

Difference between air refregeration cycle and reversed carnot cycle?
the Carnot cycle has 2 constant specific volume processes (heat in & heat out) the air refrigeration cycle is based on a brayton cycle which has two constant pressure processes.
What do you mean by carnot cycle?
carnot cycle?
Which cycle consist of two reversible isothermal and isobars?
carnot cycle
Limitations of the Carnot cycle for?
The Carnot Heat Engine Cycle and the Carnot Heat Pump Cycle are reversible cycles and do not exist in any actual operation. However, they are very useful for predicting maximum possible thermal efficiencies and coefficients of performance using the absolute temperature of the heat source and the absolute temperature of the heat sink. The Carnot Cycle consists of two reversible and adiabatic ( isentropic ) steps and two reversible and isothermal steps.
Is Carnot cycle is practically impossible?
ya it is practicaly imposible
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.
Difference between Carnot and ideal cycle?
What is the difference between ideal and actual cycle?
Limitations of the Carnot cycle for the operation of the steam power plant?
The Carnot cycle gives the theoretical maximum efficiency of an engine operating between two heat reservoirs. The Carnot cycle is an idealized engine cycle that is thermodynamically reversible. Real systems such as power plants are not reversible, and the entropy of a real material changes with temperature (which is not accounted for by the Carnot cycle). A steam power plant operates closer to a cycle known as the Rankine cycle.
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
Difference between air refregeration cycle and reversed carnot cycle?
the Carnot cycle has 2 constant specific volume processes (heat in & heat out) the air refrigeration cycle is based on a brayton cycle which has two constant pressure processes.
What makes a Carnot cycle unique?
The Carnot cycle was proposed by Nicolas L©onard Sadi Carnot in 1823. It is a theoretical thermodynamic cycle. It is the most efficient cycle for creating a temperature difference.
What do you mean by carnot cycle?
carnot cycle?
Why carnot cycle are consider as ideal reversible cycle?
carnot cycle is the highiest efficiency
Reversed carnot cycle assumes all processes in the cycle as?
reversible.But always remember that a carnot cycle is an idealized cycle and it is not
What is meant by Carnot cycle?
The Carnot cycle is a mathematical description of an engine that derives its power from heat.
Carnot cycle is practically possible or not?
no, a Carnot cycle is not practiclly possible.bcz carnot consist of two cycles. i.e 1-rev. adiabatic 2-isothermal
What are the differene between stirling cycle and carnot cycle?
In Carnot & Stirling cycle there were 2 isothermal processes. but in Stirling engine other 2 processes are constant volume processes whereas in Carnot other 2 processes are isentropic processes. Stirling engine has low maintenance and easy to built because of there construction. Both cycle's efficiencies near to same. but operating according to there applications.
