Title: COMPARISON OF THERMAL EFFICIENCIES FOR A MERCURY-STEAM BINARY VAPOR CYCLE AND THE RANKINE CYCLE

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4006859

A comparison of the thermal efficiencies of the mercurysteam binary vapor cycle and the Rankine cycle shows that the binary cycle efficiency is greater. A temperatureentropy diagram and a schematic layout of the binary cycle are presented for clarity. (N.W.R.)
