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

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.

Which food is at a temperature that allows bacteria to grow well ? A) a roast at 125•F (52•c) B) hamburgers at 165•f (74•c) C) p
Lilit [14]

The correct answer is A) A roast at 125°F (52°C)

Explanation:

In general terms, bacteria thrive at warm temperatures; this means bacterial growth is lower at extremely hot/cold temperatures, but it is higher at warm or medium temperatures. Indeed, the ideal temperature for bacteria to develop and reproduce is between 4° C and 60°C. This implies from the options given the roast at 52°C represents an ideal temperature for the growth of bacteria. Also, other options include temperatures above 60°C, and therefore do not allow bacteria to grow well.

How are the names of binary ionic compounds determined?
Alexandra [31]
Naming ionic compounds<span> with transition metals isn't too hard either. They are</span>named<span> like the </span>binary compounds<span>, with the cation first, then the anion with -ide added to it, but you have to take into account the variations of the metal </span>ions<span>. You do this by adding Roman numerals in parenthesis to the cation.</span>
