ABSTRACT:
Steam or other condensable vapor heated to a maximum temperature at a maximum pressure permitted by the system is expanded to a lower pressure in a positive displacement expander; the partially expanded fluid is then further expanded in a turbine, a portion of the fluid in the turbine is withdrawn and directed to a positive displacement compressor and compressed to the maximum operating pressure while introducing the condensate of the remaining portion of the fluid into the compressor. The compressed fluid is then reheated to maximum temperature and the cycle repeats.
