3: Consider the Rankine power cycle using vapor and liquid.
a: Draw the T-s property diagram of the Carnot Vapor Cycle and explain what kind
of problem the Carnot Vapor Cycle has in each process explicitly.
b: Draw a T-s diagram for the ideal Rankine cycle and label each process explicitly.
Write down the thermal efficiency in terms of enthalpy.
c: There is an ideal reheating Rankine cycle in order to improve the efficiency of the
ideal Rankine cycle. Explain the cycle and its necessity in terms of the property diagram
explicitly.
d: Name the gas power cycle which uses the same four processes in its cycle and
draw the T-s diagram and the P-v diagram for the gas power cycle.
