Vapor and Combines Power Cycles
Learning Objectives
I.Analyze vapor power cycles in which the working fluid is alternately vaporized and condensed. |
 |  |  | II.Analyze power generation coupled with process heating called cogeneration. |
 |  |  | III.Investigate ways to modify the basic Rankine vapor power cycle to increase the cycle thermal efficiency. |
 |  |  | IV.Analyze the reheat and regenerative vapor power cycles. |
 |  |  | V.Analyze power cycles that consist of two separate cycles known as combined cycles |
 |  |  | VI.Introduce the concepts of binary cycles. |
