A gas turbine operates with a regenerator and two stages of reheating and intercooling. Air enters this engine at 14 psia and 60

F; the pressure ratio for each stage of compression is 3; the air temperature when entering the turbine is 940F; and the regenerator operates perfectly.
Determine the mass flow rate of the air passing through this engine and the rates of heat addition and rejection when this engine produces 1000 hp. Assume isentropic operations for all compressor and the turbine stages and use constant specific heats at room temperature.

Answer:

flow(m) = 7.941 lbm/s

Q_in = 90.5184 Btu/lbm

Q_out = 56.01856 Btu/lbm

Explanation:

Given:

- T_1 = 60 F = 520 R

- T_6 = 940 = 1400 R

- Heat ratio for air k = 1.4

- Compression ratio r = 3

- W_net,out = 1000 hp

Find:

mass flow rate of the air

rates of heat addition and rejection

Solution:

- Using ideal gas relation compute T_2, T_4, T_10:

                     T_2 = T_1 * r^(k-1/k)

                     T_2 = T_4 = T_10 = 520*3^(.4/1.4) = 711.744 R

- Using ideal gas relation compute T_7, T_5, T_9:

                     T_7 = T_6 * r^(-k-1/k)

                     T_7 = T_5 = T_9 = 1400*3^(-.4/1.4) = 1022.84 R

- The mass flow rate is obtained by:

                     flow(m) = W_net,out / 2*c_p*(1400-1022.84-711.744+520)

                     flow(m) = 1000*.7068 / 2*0.24*(1400-1022.84-711.744+520)

                     flow(m) = 7.941 lbm/s

- The heat input is as follows:

                     Q_in = c_p*(T_6 - T_5)

                     Q_in = 0.24*(1400 - 1022.84)

                     Q_in = 90.5184 Btu/lbm

- The heat output is as follows:

                     Q_out = c_p*(T_10 - T_1)

                     Q_out = 0.24*(711.744 - 520)

                    Q_out = 56.01856 Btu/lbm

At an auction of antiques, a bidder for a particular porcelain statue would be trying to ________(a) Maximize the difference bet
alex41 [277]

Answer: MINIMIZE INPUT

Explanation: AUCTION this is a process of selling a product,an Art work other tradeable assets like stocks, bonds based on the person with the highest BIDDING( Higher amount). In most cases the person buying will try to control his bidding to the MINIMUM AMOUNT in order for him to avoid spending higher than expected. Auction sale is sometimes used when trying to sell off old products which has been held for a long time, sometimes Auctions are used to raise funds for a particular Reason like the sale of ARTIFACTS.
