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.

Converting thermal energy to mechanical energy?
steam engine? Carnot cycle heat engine?
What contributions did Sadi Carnot and James Young and Joseph Black and Count Rumford made to the nature of heat?
Sadi Carnot discovered that the transformation of heat into mechanical energy could only occur when thermal energy flows from a hot object to a cool object. he also discovered that in this process some heat was always lost.
What is the rate of heat output of a Carnot engine?
Power Output / [(1/Thermal Efficiency) - 1], where Thermal Efficiency = 1 - Tc/Th
What a heat engine does What a heat mover does?
A heat engine converts thermal energy to mechanical energy. Examples of a heat engine is a refrigerator, heat pump, and carnot cycle. A heat mover transfers heat from one object to another.
What is the reverse of heat engine operate?
carnot engine
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 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

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.
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.
What do you mean by carnot cycle?
carnot cycle?
Which is the carnot engine formula?
carnot = carrot
