A high temperature Rankine binary cycle for ground and space solar engine applicationsA Rankine cycle covering the range of plasma temperatures possible from a solar radiation boiler is studied. The working fluid is potassium. A binary cycle with potassium as the topping cycle fluid and a conventional steam cycle as the bottoming cycle for earth-based applications is analyzed. Operation in conjunction with a wave energy exchanger is considered.
