What is Actual vs Ideal Vapour Power Cycles about?

The document summarizes the deviation of an actual vapor power cycle from an ideal cycle. It discusses three main reasons for deviation: turbine losses due to heat transfer and polytropic expansion rather than isentropic; pump losses due to irreversibility and polytropic rather than isentropic compression; and condenser losses due to pressure loss causing cooling below saturation temperature. It then describes methods to increase the efficiency of a simple Rankine cycle, including reheat cycles and regenera
