Air enters the compressor of a gas power plant at 1 bar and 18°C. The maximum cycle temperature is 780°C using fuel with heating value of 42 MJ/kg. The air mass flow rate is 12 kg/s. The isentropic efficiency of compressor and turbine is 85%. If the overall pressure ratio is 8/1, then calculate: • Plant output of the plant. • Mass flow rate of fuel. • Cycle thermal efficiency. Draw the cycle on T-s diagram. Take for air that C, = 1.005 kJ/kg K, y= 1.4

A Joule cycle is used for electricity production in a power plant. Air is introduced to the cycle from the ambient with a pressure of 1 bar, and a temperature of 20 °C. The air is compressed in compressor C1 and is thereafter cooled down to 30 °C. The air is compressed again in compressor C2. The air passes through a regenerator where it is heated by exhaust gases. Heat is added by combustion of fuel in combustion chamber CC1. The air is thereafter expanded in turbine T1. The air is reheated in combustion chamber CC2. The air is expanded in turbine T2, and the exhaust gases after the turbine pass through the regenerator and is finally vented to the ambient. Turbine T2 is driving compressor C2. The net work from the cycle is produced by the difference between the work produced by turbine T1 and compressor C1. The regenerator efficiency is 0.80, the isentropic efficiency of the compressor is 0.83, and for the turbine 0.85. The temperature after CC1 and CC2 is tCC, the pressure after…
