Thermodynamic Cycle
This product is a thermodynamic cycle system that converts thermal energy into mechanical/electrical work. It is used to demonstrate the operating process of steam turbine power generation and to study fundamental thermodynamic processes, including isentropic compression, constant-pressure heat addition, isentropic expansion, and constant-pressure condensation, thereby helping users understand the working principle of the Rankine cycle.
The system mainly consists of a steam boiler, turbine generator, condenser, water supply tank, and water pump. The module is designed based on real industrial products with miniaturization. It supports flexible configuration by allowing single or multiple system connections.
The centralized data acquisition and control module provides data collection and analysis functions. It measures inlet and outlet parameters of each module, including temperature, pressure, and electrical power, and enables operating condition control and real-time status display.
Through innovative design and development, the system ensures efficient, stable, and safe operation while offering good scalability and maintainability. The data system is open and supports user customization, enabling multidisciplinary expansion.
The display unit shows system operation schematics, dynamic curves, and real-time monitoring of all measurement points, including temperature, pressure, condensation pressure, flow rate, operating voltage, current, and power.
