In contrast to other types of solar applications such as solar heating, the biggest demand for cooling occurs when the solar radiation is at its most intense, thereby making the marriage of solar thermal energy and solar cooling all the more attractive. 3, record 1, English, - solar%20air%20conditioning

Le cycle de Rankine est à la base des machines utilisant la vapeur d'eau dans les centrales thermiques et nucléaires, il comprend : deux isobares BP et HP, deux isentropes (Q = 0). Le cycle de la vapeur d'eau est une suite de transformations dans des systèmes ouverts successifs (chaudière, turbine, condenseur et pompe d'alimentation...). L'énergie emmagasinée dans les combustibles fossiles ou nucléaires est convertie en travail mécanique pour entraîner soit une turbine (centrales T + N) soit un moteur à piston (locomotives à vapeur...). Le processus comprend la vaporisation de l'eau, la détente de la vapeur dans la turbine et sa condensation dans un condenseur. Si ce cycle de Rankine est modifié par une surchauffe de la vapeur à la sortie de la chaudière on l'appelle alors cycle de Hirn. 2, record 3, French, - cycle%20de%20Rankine
