Rankine, William John Macquorn Scottish engineer and physicist who was one of the founders of the science of thermodynamics, especially in reference to the theory of steam engines. Rankine was born in Edinburgh and trained as a civil engineer. From 1855 he was professor at Glasgow. In 1849 he delivered two papers on the subject of heat, and in 1849 he showed the further modifications required to French physicist Sadi Carnot's theory of thermodynamics. In A Manual of the Steam Engine and other Prime Movers 1859, Rankine described a thermodynamic cycle of events (the Rankine cycle), which came to be used as a standard for the performance of steam-power installations where a considerable vapour provides the working fluid. Rankine here explained how a liquid in the boiler vaporized by the addition of heat converts part of this energy into mechanical energy when the vapour expands in an engine. As the exhaust vapour is condensed by a cooling medium such as water, heat is lost from the cycle. The condensed liquid is pumped back into the boiler.

World Wide Web of Geotechnical Engineers - Hall of Fame William John Maquorn Rankine Used with permission from the Institution of Civil Engineers, London The Man One can only wonder if the brilliance of William John Maquorn Rankine was hereditary or if he was merely a prodigy of his time. In a lecture delivered before the British Geotechnical Society at the University of Glasgow on December 13, 1972, Hugh B. Sutherland, Cormack Professor of Civil Engineering from the University of Glasgow said of him: ‘Rankine was no ordinary man.’ He humbly described his task of telling of Rankine’s life and times by saying: ‘It has left me with the feeling that anything I can say is a tribute to a giant of the past from a tiny mortal of the present." On ending his lecture, he stated: ‘Rankine was the most wonderful combination of the man of genius and of humor. How much more pleasant and effective is the contribution, scientific or otherwise, when you know behind it lies a man capable of having a twinkle in his eye.’ Civil Engineer Very little is known today of Rankine’s work as a practicing civil engineer. However, it is apparent he was introduced during his second year of college to the profession by his father, David Rankine. The elder Mr. Rankine, a civil engineer, was a superintendent for the Edinburgh and Dalkeith Railway. Young Rankine spent a year assisting his father and then he left for Ireland, where he worked on railroad, hydraulic, and various other projects. After four years in Ireland, he returned to Scotland and worked with railway companies and consultants until about 1848.

Rankine, William John Macquorn b. July 5, 1820, Edinburgh, Scot. d. Dec. 24, 1872, Glasgow Scottish engineer and physicist and one of the founders of the science of thermodynamics , particularly in reference to steam-engine theory. Trained as a civil engineer under Sir John Benjamin MacNeill, Rankine was appointed to the Queen Victoria chair of civil engineering and mechanics at the University of Glasgow (1855). One of Rankine's first scientific works, a paper on fatigue in metals of railway axles (1843), led to new methods of construction. His Manual of Applied Mechanics (1858) was of considerable help to designing engineers and architects. His classic Manual of the Steam Engine and Other Prime Movers (1859) was the first attempt at a systematic treatment of steam-engine theory. Rankine worked out a thermodynamic cycle of events (the so-called Rankine cycle ) used as a standard for the performance of steam-power installations in which a condensable vapour provides the working fluid. In soil mechanics his work on earth pressures and the stability of retaining walls was a notable advance, particularly his paper "On the Thermodynamic Theory of Waves of Finite Longitudinal Disturbance."

Gazetteer for Scotland Help ... Add Comment William John Macquorn Rankine Engineer and physicist. Born in Edinburgh, Rankine became Professor of Civil engineering and Mechanics at the University of Glasgow in 1855. He became a pioneer in the field of thermodynamics, producing important publications in this area. He also studied forces in frame structures, molecular physics and fatigue in metals, particularly in relation to railway axles which led to new methods of construction. Rankine also undertook pioneering work in soil mechanics, considering earth pressures and the stability of retaining walls. He also designed schemes for improving rivers and harbours. Rankine was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1853. He died in Glasgow and his name is remembered in the principle known as the Rankine cycle, which he developed and is used as a thermodynamic standard for rating the performance of steam turbines.
