La gazéification du charbon est très ancienne mais ce n’ est que récemment que, grâce au développement des turbines à combustion et à l'expérience industrielle de la gazéification des produits pétroliers, des centrales de production d’électricité IGCC [gazéification du charbon intégrée à un cycle combiné] ont vu le jour. Dans cette filière, un gaz, produit par la gazéification sous pression du charbon(à l'air ou à l'oxygène), est refroidi puis épuré aussi soigneusement que possible afin de servir de combustible dans une turbine à combustion dont les fumées à haute température permettent de générer de la vapeur pour alimenter une turbine à condensation classique. 2, record 1, French, - gaz%C3%A9ification%20sous%20pression

Steam turbines may ... be classified as condensing or noncondensing, depending upon whether or not the steam is exhausted to a condenser ... In condensing turbines, condensation of the exhaust steam is effected by the circulation of large quantities of cold water through the tubes of the condenser. The circulating water absorbs the heat given up during condensation and carries it away. 2, record 2, English, - condensing%20turbine

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
