The Brayton cycle is named after 19 th century engineer George Brayton, who developed this method of using hot, pressurized fluid to spin a turbine, much like a jet engine. Because so much energy is lost turning steam back into water in the Rankine cycle, at most a third of the power in the steam can be converted into electricity.
