Hi everybody. I´m project engineer from Spain. I´m workig in a rankine cycle project and we are in the state of the project related to the pipes design. We have some doubts:
If we reduce the mass flow, what happens with the pressure? (I think it drops, but I don´t know why). our intention is to mantain the pressure constant in the cycle, but sometimes regulation of mass flow is needed. So, if the mass flow is reduced, how can we mantain the pressure?
The last question: Why does the pressure fall when the mass flow is reduced?
