Rankine Cycle: Rankine cycle is a thermodynamic cycle and an example of a vapour power thermodynamic cycle; a cycle which uses water, in both its liquid and gaseous states, to generate power. The rankine cycle has 4 major components: Steam Turbine: The primary power generation unit of the rankine cycle. Steam enters the…

Any object moving through a fluid experiences drag - the net force in the direction of flow due to pressure and shear stress forces on the surface of the object. The drag force can be expressed as: Fd =  1/2 cdρ v2 A                       where…

For the simulation, the following parameters were defined: Gravity: -9.81m/s^2 (Y- direction) Units: Length : Meters Force: Newtons Simulation Time= 5 seconds BASIC SETUP: 3 points were defined: P0(0,0,0) P1(0,-10,0) P2(-20,0,0) COM1(0,-5,0) COM2(-10,-5,0) 2 Bodies were defined: CYL1 (Center of mass coordinates at COM1)…
