Consider two cycles: one is the ideal Carnot cycle and the other is the ideal Rankine cycle. Both cycles are saturated liquids at the inlet to the pump and saturated vapor at the inlet to the turbine. If the maximum temperature for the Carnot cycle is equal to the maximum temperature for the Rankine cycle, answer (and give a brief explanation) if the quantities below for the Rankine cycle are greater than, less than, or equal to those for the Carnot cycle. EXPLAIN each answer.
