A gas-turbine power plant operates on the simple Brayton cycle with air as the working fluid and delivers 33 MW of power. The minimum and maximum temperatures in the cycle are 310 and 900 K, and the pressure of air at the compressor exit is eight times the value at the compressor inlet. Assuming an isentropic efficiency of 80 percent for the compressor and 86 percent for the turbine, determine the mass flow rate of air through the cycle using constant specific heats at room temperature. The properties of air at room temperature are cp=1.005 kJ/kg-K and k=1.4. The mass flow rate of air through the cycle is kg/s.

kgK 4. An ideal Otto cycle has a compression ratio of 9. Using constant specific heats at room temperature, determine the thermal efficiency of this cycle and the rate of heat input if the cycle is to produce 60 kW of power, k=1.4.
Steam generated at a power plant at 8.0 MPa and 600.°C is fed to a turbine. Exhaust from the turbine enters a condenser at 25 kPa where it is condensed to a saturated liquid, which is then pumped to the boiler. What is the thermal efficiency of a Rankine cycle with a reversible adiabatic turbine operating at these conditions?
In a Rankine Cycle , saturated liquid water at 1 bar is compressed isentropically to 150 bar. First by heating in a boiler and then by superheating at constant pressure of 150 Bar, the water substance is brought to 750 K. After Adiabatic reversible expansion in a turbine at 1 Bar, it is then cooled in a condenser to a saturated liquid. How much work is generated in the turbine? (include diagram)
Let us consider a standard air cycle with variable specific heats, where 0.003 kg of air is added as the working fluid. The complete cycle is composed of:1-2 Addition of heat at v=cte of 95 kPa and 17°C up to 380 kPa.2-3 Isentropic expansion up to 95 kPa.3-1 Heat rejection at P=cte up to the initial state. Determine the net work done by the cycle and the thermal efficiency.
Consider a simple ideal Brayton cycle with air as the working fluid. The pressure ratio of the cycle is 6, and the minimum and maximum temperatures are 300 and 1300 K, respectively.
