Project 2 - Rankine cycle Simulator

Aim :-

1. To Simulate a Rankine cycle using matlab.
2. Extracting Steam and water properties from Xstram file.
3. Calculating all the state points of the cycle based on User inputs.
4. Plotting the T vs S and H vs S plot for the given input.

Theory-

A rankine cycle is an idealised Thermodynamic cycle which governs the working of a Heat Engine. In Rankine cycle,the
friction losses of a heat engine are neglected. It is a cycle which converts heat into mechanical energy which usually is converted into
electrical energy . There are four components in this cycle which work on four different processes.The four components are
turbine,Condensor,Pump and Boiler. Rankine cycle is nothing but a modification of Carnot cycle. Ideal Rankine cycle is very useful in
steam power plants and gas power plants. To improve the efficiency of Rankine cycle in the steam power plant, there are some
changes in Rankine cycle which differs from the Carnot cycle. Firstly, a pump is used in place of condenser to handle only liquid, not a
mixture of liquid and vapour.Secondly, exhaust steam from the turbine is completely condensed in the condenser, see in the following

diagram:

There are four processes in the rankine cycle :
1. Process 1-2 : Isentropic Expansion in the turbine
2. Process 2-3 : Constant pressure Heat rejection in condenser
3. Process 3-4 : Isentropic compression in the pump
4. Process 4-1 : Constant pressure heat addition in the boiler
