P.K. Nag's book is a standard reference for mechanical engineering and typically covers: : Analysis of Rankine and Brayton cycles.
Unlike generic power plant books that gloss over cycles, Nag’s book delves deep into the , its modifications (reheat, regeneration), and the real-world inefficiencies that plague thermal power stations. The book strikes a rare balance: theoretical rigor combined with practical data (e.g., typical boiler efficiencies, condenser pressures, and cooling tower designs).

Nag dedicates nearly 40% of the book to steam cycles. He meticulously explains: Nag’s book delves deep into the
