The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- When a system is taken through a series of different states and finally returned to its initial state, a thermodynamic cycle is said to have occurred.
- The desiccant absorbs moisture from the air leaving the cold surface, releasing heat and drying the air, which can be used in a process requiring dry air.
- The desiccant is then dried by an air stream at a lower relative humidity, where the desiccant gives up its moisture by evaporation, increasing the air's relative humidity and cooling it.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Cromer cycle article was read about 1,200 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 56 and blocks with 28: each hit it takes is cut by 11 %.
