Saturation vapor curve


The saturation vapor curve is the curve separating the two-phase state and the superheated vapor state in the T-s diagram. The saturated liquid curve is the curve separating the subcooled liquid state and the two-phase state in the T-s diagram.

When used in a power cycle, the fluid expansion depends strongly on the nature of this saturation curve:

Wet fluid in an ORC cycle

Isentropic fluid in an ORC cycle

Dry fluid in an ORC cycle
