he engine now reverses its stroke and pushesthe steam out of the cylinder at the constant pressure V^E until the point/Ms reached. Since the pressure-is con-stant, the temperature is constant, and the line E F cor-responds to the isothermal compression line of Fig. 232.At F^ the exhaust port… … HEAT. 521 It is evident that the cycle just described is not reversible, being open at both ends; but, nevertheless, it has a greater efficiency than could be obtained from an actual cngine. The thermal efficiency of the process just described is easily found. The temperature corresponding to a…
