Study resources
- Critical Pressure Ratio & Its Significance (Article) — Derives critical pressure ratio (Pc/P1 = 0.577 for dry steam, n=1.135), explains sonic choking, and covers area calculations at throat and exit for maximum discharge with friction effect.
- Binary Vapour Cycle & Combined Power+Heating (Article) — Full NPTEL course covering binary vapour cycles (mercury-steam), co-generation (combined power and process heating), and ideal working fluid criteria. Refer to Unit 5 and Unit 6 lectures.
