ssity for such assumptions,and they in no way affect the efficiency. The temperature-entropy diagram for Carnots cycle for asteam-engine is shown by Fig. 32, on which are drawn also thelines for entropy of the liquidmdj and the entropy of satur-ated vapor bCy as well as thelines which represent the… … 0.1 0.2 0.3 ¥ Fig. 32. along cdj and the condensationduring the adiabatic compression da. In the diagram the work-ing substance is shown as water at a and as dry steam at b;the efficiency would clearly be the same for a cycle a y c d,which contains a varying mixture of water and steam under…
