A gas-turbine power plant operates on the simple Brayton cycle between the pressure limits of 100 and 1600 kPa. The working flui
d is air, which enters the compressor at 40∘C at a rate of 850m3/min and leaves the turbine at 650∘C. Assuming a compressor isentropic efficiency of 85 percent and a turbine isentropic efficiency of 88 percent, determine
(a) the net power output,
(b) the back work ratio, and
(c) the thermal efficiency.
Use constant specific heats with
cv=0.821kJ/kg?
K,cp=1.108kJ/kg?
K, and k=1.35.
