RankineCycler™ is delivered as a complete and ready to operate steam-electric power plant. About the size of an average office desk, RankineCycler™ entails beautifully - crafted working components, including a multi-pass boiler, axial - flow steam turbine, AC/DC generator and a condenser tower.

 
 

Front and rear boiler doors open with push button ease, providing a clear view of flame tubes, the fuel nozzle, vortex generator and igniter. A variable speed combustion blower even enables operation on either LP or natural gas.

 
 
Sensors are installed at all key locations and measure temperatures, pressures, fuel-flow rate and generator power output. Signal outputs are conditioned and factory calibrated for "real-time" on-screen display, allowing students to complete many energy related experiments.  
 
RankineCycler™... a truly unmatched value in hands-on power cycle analysis.  
We've gathered together several images of the
RankineCycler ™ for you to explore.
"The RankineCycler™ is the best tool on the market for laboratory teaching of thermodynamic principles and power generation, and it comes with the lowest price tag.  In fact, as far as I can tell, it is the only available educational equipment of its kind."
