A Bryton power plant is designed to develop a power output of 135 MW whenoperating at standard conditions of 1 bar and 15°C. The axial flow compressoroperates at pressure ratio of 12. The turbine section consists of two stages, ahigh pressure turbine to drive the generator and low pressure turbine drives thecompressor. Calculate the pressure at exit of high pressure turbine, thermalefficiency and mass flow rate of air using the following data:The maximum cycle temperature of 1192 K and the hot gases temperatureleaving second stage of turbine is limited to 670 K.
