Benson Boiller : Principle, Construction & Working

Today we will discuss about Benson boiler. Benson boiler is also known as super critical steam generator which is developed by Mark Benson in the year 1922. This boiler can generate high pressure steam, which is further used in production of electricity and other industrial processes. It is a water tube boiler. In the early stage water tube boiler used to generate …

Carnot Cycle : Effitiency, Working and Air Standard Analysis

Today we will discuss and analysis of Carnot cycle. Carnot cycle is one of the air standard cycle. It is given by a French engineer, Sadi Carnot so named as Carnot cycle. This is an ideal cycle of all thermodynamic cycle because it gives maximum efficiency between two temperature difference. When we study about any …

What is Air Standard Cycle and its Assumptions?

The internal combustion engine works on the sequence of separate process intake, compression, combustion, expansion and exhaust. It does not operate on thermodynamic cyclic because it involves an open system. The working fluid (fuel and air mixture) enters into the system in intake stroke and leaves it in exhaust stroke.  The working fluid does not …
