Process 1-2 represents the admission of high pressure steam into the engine cylinder, process 2-3 is the reversible adiabatic expansion of steam in the cylinder and process 3-4 is the exhaust of steam into condenser. Net work done is represented by the area 12-3-4-1.

Observe that the area 3-6-5 is very small and in order to obtain this small work, the cylinder volume must be increased from v6 to v3.This makes cylinder very bulky. For this reason, the expansion process is terminated at point 5. So that indicator diagram becomes 1-2-5-6-4. The work lost is small but there is large saving in cylinder volume. Process 5-6 represents the release of steam into the condenser, thus causing the cylinder pressure to drop from P5 to P6. Process 6-4 is the exhaust of steam at constant pressure. Cycle 1-2-5-6-4 is called as the “modified Rankine cycle”.

Thermal Efficiency: Considering the unit mass of working fluid,

Heat supplied = h 2 - h1 Net workdone = {w 2-5 + w 5-6 + w 4-1 } 6

= ( h 2 - h 5 ) - ∫ vdp + ( h 4 - h1 ) 5

= ( h 2 - h 5 ) + v5 ( p5 - p6 ) + ( h 4 - h1 )

v5 = specific volume of steam at state 5. ηth =

(h 2 - h 5 ) + v5 (p5 - p6 ) + (h 4 - h1 ) Net workdone = Heat sup plied (h 2 - h1 )

If pump work is neglected, then h 4 ≈ h1 ηth =
