The simplest form of pressurization uses the expansion of the water content of the system to create a sufficient pressure in an expansion vessel to provide an anti-flash margin of, say, 17°C at the lowest pressure (highest point) of the system. The main disadvantage of a naturally pressurized expansion vessel is the ability of water to absorb air and the consequent risk of oxygen corrosion. 

Explain why a constant-pressure expansion cannot be included in a reversible engine operating with any finite number of heat reservoirs. 

The dependence of the pressure and ratio upon the area ratio is a function only of the ratio of the specific heats. Since, for a given propellant combination, the specific heat ratio does not vary greatly during the expansion process, the relation between the area and pressure expansion ratios takes a particularly simple form. 

The typical pressure expansion thermometer is a volume of gas that maintains the same number of molecules throughout a test. Because the volume, number of molecules, and gas constant are all constant, any drop in temperature will subsequently cause a drop in pressure. Likewise, any rise in temperature will cause a rise in pressure.

In order to achieve a favourable load curve, the stator casing is mostly made in the form of a thick-walled hollow cylinder as a semi-finished forging of material C22.8 (as per VdTUV 350) for temperatures up to 350°C or an austenitic stainless steel. Its cylindrical construction makes it easy to calculate the load curve as described in the AD data sheets (Figure 4). The add-on components, the spacer with the pump casing and the motor sealing cover are bolted to the motor by means of concentrically arranged high-pressure expansion bolts.

The concept of a zero emission coal-fired power plant as a large source of very high pressure flow of CO2 aimed at oil extraction is presented. The results from a simple model are discussed when pure carbon is considered as the fuel. The issues raised by the use of CO2 turbines for high and low pressure expansions are addressed. The key point of the oil extraction process is in the delay between the start of the injection of CO2 and the oil lifting in order to let the supercritical CO2 dissolve all the oil in place. A rough calculation shows that the CO2 produced by a set of new C02-based power plants with an installed power of 14 GW can be used for the extraction of 300 Mton of oil during 20 years. It is a recommended option in Europe where a lot of oil fields can still be exploited.
