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

1 answer:

4 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.

<h3>What are modern Brayton engines?</h3>

Even originally Brayton exclusively produced piston engines, modern Brayton engines are virtually invariably of the turbine variety. Brayton engines are also gas turbines.

<h3>What is the ranking cycle?</h3>

A gas cycle is the Brayton cycle, while the Ranking cycle is a steam cycle. The production of water droplets will especially decrease the steam turbine's performance. Gas-powered compressors will have to do more work since gas's specific volume is greater than steam's.

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

True strain = 3.7704

Explanation:

Strain is the measure an object that is stretched or deformed. This occurs when a force is applied to an object. Strain deals mostly with the change in length of the object. Strain = Δ L /L = Change in Length over the original Length:

Volume Constancy :

ΔL/L0=A0/ΔA=(D0/ ΔD)=(25mm/0.75mm)^2

ΔL/L0=44.4

Engineering strain:

Engineering strain =ΔL-L0/L0=ΔL/L0-1

Engineering strain =44.4-1=43.4

True strain, ε=In(ΔL/L0)=In(43.4)=3.7704

Note that strain has no unit, so the True strain = 3.7704

Lithium at 20°C is BCC and has a lattice constant of 0.35092 nm. Calculate a value for the atomic radius of a lithium atom in na

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

the atomic radius of a lithium atom is 0.152 nm

Explanation:

Given data in question

structure = BCC

lattice constant (a) = 0.35092 nm

to find out

atomic radius of a lithium atom

solution

we know structure is BCC

for BCC radius formula is $\sqrt{3}$ /4 × a

here we have known a value so we put a in radius formula

radius = $\sqrt{3}$ /4 × a

radius = $\sqrt{3}$ /4 × 0.35092

radius = 0.152 nm

so the atomic radius of a lithium atom is 0.152 nm
