Why is the back-work ratio much higher in the brayton cycle than in the rankine cycle?

Biology
1 answer:
Ivanshal [37]1 year ago
3 0

The back-work ratio much higher in the brayton cycle than in the rankine cycle because a gas cycle is the Brayton cycle, while a steam cycle is the Rankine cycle. Particularly, the creation of water droplets will be a constraint on the steam turbine's efficiency. Since gas has a bigger specific volume than steam, the compressor will have to work harder while using gas.

Recall the steady flow device's shaft work expression.

W =-∫ V dP +...

As it is in the pump (liquid) compared to turbine (superheated vapor) in the Rankine cycle, the specific volume in the compressor is not significantly less than the specific volume in the turbine in the Brayton cycle.

A thermodynamic cycle that transforms heat into mechanical energy is the Rankine cycle, often known as the Rankine vapor cycle.

The operation of various heat engines that use air or another gas as their working fluid is described by the Brayton cycle, a thermodynamic cycle.

The surge in luteinizing hormone that occurs during the middle of the ovarian cycle triggers
avanturin [10]
<h2>Ovulation   </h2>

Explanation:

In women, luteinizing hormone carries out different roles in the two halves of the menstrual cycle

  • In week one to two of the cycle, luteinizing hormone is required to stimulate the ovarian follicles in the ovary to produce the female sex hormone, oestradiol
  • Around day 14 of the cycle, a surge in  luteinizing hormone levels causes the ovarian follicle to tear and release a mature oocyte (egg) from the ovary, a process called ovulation
  • For the remainder of the cycle (weeks three to four), the remnants of the ovarian follicle forms a corpus luteum
  • Luteinizing hormone stimulates the corpus luteum to produce progesterone, which is required to support the early stages of pregnancy, if fertilization occurs

What 2 chemicals are inside skeletal muscle?
marta [7]

Answer:

Skeletal muscle tissue is composed of cells called muscle fibers. When the nervous system signal reaches the neuromuscular junction a chemical message is released by the motor neuron. The chemical message, a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine, binds to receptors on the outside of the muscle fiber.
