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

Biology

Ivanshal [37]1 year ago

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.

makkiz [27]
In multi-celullar organisms , the cell cycle produces groups of cells that perform the same function. These groups of cells form what it is called a tissue. A tissue is made up of cells that all are specialised to perform the same function. A bunch of tissues form an organ. Organs are more complex in structure and functions.
lots of different organs together form an organ system.

All organisms must perform life-sustaining metabolic processes in order to survive.
Alik [6]

Explanation:

  • Unicellular organisms or single celled organisms that are made up only of one cell. Hence the name.
  • Unicellular organisms are further divided into Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic organisms
  • Examples of prokaryotic organisms are bacteria and Eukaryotic are protozoa and unicellular algae, however many eukaryotes are multi cellular as well.
  • These organisms have to carry out life sustaining metabolic processes for their survival.
  • These processes are metabolism, homeostasis and reproduction. Metabolism is important as it involves conversion of food into energy for cellular processes. Homeostasis for maintaining a constant internal physical and chemical conditions and reproduction is by cell division.
  • Multi cellular organisms as the name says unlike unicellular organisms consists of more than one cells.
  • Examples of multi cellular organisms are animals, land plants etc.,
  • Metabolic process in multi cellular organisms is a broad category of processes happening for these organisms which involves chemical reactions and pathways that happen at organismal state, transporting substances between the cells.
