Rankine Cycle


            (Prepared on the Partial fulfillment of the requirement of the course Thermal Science "MEC 189.
            
             This is the term paper on the application of Rankine cycle in steam power plants, improved efficiency presented by PRABIN SHARMA.This term paper provides good knowledge of Rankine cycle. In this term paper, I have compared Rankine cycle with Carnot cycle, I have given the idea of the application of Rankine cycle in steam power plants and the methods to increase the efficiency of the Rankine cycle. As Rankine cycle is simply a hypothesis, all the matters presented here are based on theory only.
             Since this is Mine first term paper, there might be errors and mistakes which we hope the readers will inform me about.
             I would like to my sincere thanks to My honorable and respected teacher Mr. Yogesh Raj for giving me good guidance in the completion of this term paper. I would also like to thank our friends, seniors and those who directly and indirectly given me their outstanding help and precious guidance.
             Eventually i like to say that this term paper has boardened mine knowledge on the related topic and i hope this term paper will be a good reference for the fellow students who will do their term paper work on Rankine cycle.

             INTRODUCTION.
             In subject of thermodynamics, we generally study about the different cycles. Some power plants, such as the simple steam power plant, operate in a cycle. That is, the working plant undergoes a series of process and finally returns to the initial state. In introducing the 2nd law of thermodynamics, we consider the cyclic heat engines consisting of four separate processes.
