FUNDAMENTAL OF POWERPLANT 1.13 CLASSIFICATION OF POWERPLANT CYCLE Power plants cycle generally divided in to the following groups, (1) Vapour Power Cycle (Carnot cycle, Rankine cycle, Regenerative cycle, Reheat cycle, Binary vapour cycle) (2) Gas Power Cycles (Otto cycle, Diesel cycle, Dual combustion cycle, Gas turbine cycle.) 1.13.1 CARNOT CYCLE This cycle is of great value to heat power theory although... proportional to the square of its speed 1.6 POWERPower is the rate doing work, which equals energy per time Energy is thus required to produce power We need energy to run power plants to generate electricity We need power to run our appliances, and heat our homes Without energy we would not have electricity The units of power are watts, joules per second, and horsepower, where ; 1 Watt = 1 joule per second .
