of the sink. This is very important because this effect will reduce the irreversibilities of the cycle, therefore resulting in higher efficiencies. To identify the impact of the mixed working fluids on the cycle shown in Figure 5, we used mixed working fluids consisting of pentane/iso-hexane, pentane/iso-butane, and iso-butane/iso- hexane. Four combinations of the above working fluids were analyzed (Table 4). For the sake of comparison with the pure component working fluid, the results for a mixture of pentane/iso- butane (90% pentane, 10% iso-butane) are presented here. This working fluid gave the highest efficiency among the cycles analyzed. All the assumptions and working conditions assumed for the pure component case were applied here. The heating and cooling curves for this case are shown in Figures 9 and 10. The state points for this cycle are given in Table 5. Table 4.

The impact of the mixed working fluid is missed because the boiling is occurring under super-critical conditions. Therefore, the heating curve is not much different than the one experienced for a pure component (compare to Figure 6). However, Figure 10 shows the effect of using mixed working fluid during the cooling process. The cooling curve of the working fluid follows the heating curve of the air much closer, compared to the behavior of the pure fluid as shown in Figure 7. The efficiency of this cycle is 20.4%, which is very comparable to the pure fluid case. Therefore, for cycles operating under supercritical conditions, use of mixed working fluid does not provide any advantages. However, for the off-design or partial-load conditions where the boiler pressure falls below the critical 14
