What Is the Rankine Cycle?
An ideal thermodynamic cycle for a steam power plant.
Rankine cycle
Right!
- The reduction of the exhaust pressure is limited by the ambient temperature or the requirements of the heating user, so increasing the initial temperature and pressure is an important way to increase t.
- Rankine cycle is also the basic cycle of waste heat power recovery devices, geothermal and solar power devices. The steam power cycle used in modern large-scale thermal power plants is developed on the basis of the Rankine cycle.
