Air enters the compressor of a cold air-standard Brayton cycle with regeneration and reheat at 100 kPa, 300 K, with a mass flow

rate of 6 kg/s. The compressor pressure ratio is 10, and the inlet temperature for each turbine stage is 1400 K. The pressure ratios across each turbine stage are equal. The turbine stages and compressor each have isentropic efficiencies of 80% and the regenerator effectiveness is 80%. For k= 1.4.
Calculate:
a. the thermal efficiency of the cycle.
b. the back work ratio.
c. the net power developed, in kW.

Answer:

a. 47.48%

b. 35.58%

c. 2957.715 KW

Explanation:

T_2 =T_1 + \dfrac{T_{2s} - T_1}{\eta _c}

T₁ = 300 K

\dfrac{T_{2s}}{T_1} = \left( \dfrac{P_{2}}{P_1} \right)^{\dfrac{k-1}{k} }

T_{2s} = 300 \times (10) ^{\dfrac{0.4}{1.4} }

T_{2s} = 579.21 K

T₂ = 300+ (579.21 - 300)/0.8 = 649.01 K

T₃ = T₂ + \epsilon _{regen}(T₅ - T₂)

T₄ = 1400 K

Given that the pressure ratios across each turbine stage are equal, we have;

\dfrac{T_{5s}}{T_4} = \left( \dfrac{P_{5}}{P_4} \right)^{\dfrac{k-1}{k} }

T_{5s} = 1400×\left( 1/\sqrt{10}  \right)^{\dfrac{0.4}{1.4} }  = 1007.6 K

T₅ = T₄ + (T_{5s} - T₄)/\eta _t = 1400 + (1007.6- 1400)/0.8 = 909.5 K

T₃ = T₂ + \epsilon _{regen}(T₅ - T₂)

T₃ = 649.01 + 0.8*(909.5 - 649.01 ) = 857.402 K

T₆ = 1400 K

\dfrac{T_{7s}}{T_6} = \left( \dfrac{P_{7}}{P_6} \right)^{\dfrac{k-1}{k} }

T_{7s} = 1400×\left( 1/\sqrt{10}  \right)^{\dfrac{0.4}{1.4} }   = 1007.6 K

T₇ = T₆ + (T_{7s} - T₆)/\eta _t = 1400 + (1007.6 - 1400)/0.8 = 909.5 K

a. W_{net \ out} = cp(T₆ -T₇) = 1.005 * (1400 - 909.5) = 492.9525 KJ/kg

Heat supplied is given by the relation

cp(T₄ - T₃) + cp(T₆ - T₅) = 1.005*((1400 - 857.402) + (1400 - 909.5)) = 1038.26349 kJ/kg

Thermal efficiency of the cycle = (Net work output)/(Heat supplied)

Thermal efficiency of the cycle = (492.9525 )/(1038.26349 ) =0.4748 = 47.48%

b. bwr = \dfrac{W_{c,in}}{W_{t,out}}

bwr = (T₂ -T₁)/[(T₄ - T₅) +(T₆ -T₇)]  = (649.01 - 300)/((1400 - 909.5) + (1400 - 909.5)) = 35.58%

c. Power = 6 kg *492.9525 KJ/kg  = 2957.715 KW

professor190 [17]

Answer:

Option (d) 2 min/veh

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Average time required = 60 seconds

Therefore,

The maximum capacity that can be accommodated on the system, μ = 60 veh/hr

Average Arrival rate, λ = 30 vehicles per hour

Now,

The average time spent by the vehicle is given as

⇒ \frac{1}{\mu(1-\frac{\lambda}{\mu})}

thus,

on substituting the respective values, we get

Average time spent by the vehicle = \frac{1}{60(1-\frac{30}{60})}

or

Average time spent by the vehicle = \frac{1}{60(1-0.5)}

or

Average time spent by the vehicle = \frac{1}{60(0.5)}

or

Average time spent by the vehicle = \frac{1}{30} hr/veh

or

Average time spent by the vehicle = \frac{1}{30}\times60 min/veh

[ 1 hour = 60 minutes]

thus,

Average time spent by the vehicle = 2 min/veh

Hence,

Option (d) 2 min/veh

Steam at 40 bar and 500o C enters the first-stage turbine with a volumetric flow rate of 90 m3 /min. Steam exits the turbine at
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

(a) 62460 kg/hr

(b) 17,572.95 kW

(c) 3,814.57 kW

Explanation:

Volumetric flow rate, G = 30 m³ / 1 min => 90 / 60 => 1.5

Calculate for h₁ , h₂ , h₃

h₁ is h at P = 40 bar, 500°C => 3445.84 KJ/Kg

Specific volume steam, ц = 0.086441 m³kg⁻¹

h₂ is h at P = 20 bar, 400°C => 3248.23 KJ/Kg

h₃ is h at P = 20 bar, 500°C => 3468.09 KJ/Kg

h₄ is hg at P = 0.6 bar from saturated water table => 2652.85 KJ/Kg

a)

Mass flow rate of the steam, m = G / ц

m = 1.5 / 0.086441

m = 17.35 kg/s

mass per hour is m = 62460 kg/hr

b)

Total Power produced by two stages

= m (h₁ - h₂) + m (h₃ - h₁)

= m [(3445.84 - 3248.23) + (3468.09 - 2652.85)]

= m [ 197.61 + 815.24 ]

= 17.35 [1012.85]

= 17,572.95 kW

c)

Rate of heat transfer to the steam through reheater

= m (h₃ - h₂)

= 17.35 x (3468.09 - 3248.23)

= 17.35 x 219.86

= 3,814.57 kW
