Rankine Cycle 1 - 2 Feed Water Heater: 0 Pump Feed Adiabatic and Reversible For

The document describes the Rankine cycle process. It consists of four processes: 1) water is pressurized in a feed pump, 2) heated to steam in a boiler, 3) expands in a turbine to produce work, and 4) condenses back to water in a condenser. The Rankine cycle uses the steam power cycle to generate power from heat. Equations for each component are provided describing the energy transfers and state changes of the working fluid.
