A gas-turbine power plant operating on an ideal Brayton cycle has a pressure ratio of 8. The gas temperature is 300 K at the compressor inlet and 1300 K at the turbine inlet. Utilizing the air-standard assumptions and by accounting for the variation of specific heats with temperature, determine the thermal efficiency. The air can be treated as an ideal gas with κ = 1,4 and cp = 1006 J/(kg·K).
An ideal Otto cycle has a compression ratio of 8. At the beginning of thecompression process, air is at 100 kPa and 170C, and 800 kJ/kg of heat is transferredto air during the constant-volume heat-addition process. Accounting for thevariation of specific heats of air with temperature, determine (a) the maximumtemperature and pressure that occur during the cycle, (b) the net work output, (c)the thermal efficiency, and (d) the mean effective pressure for the cycle.

An ideal gas turbine cycle consisting of 2 stages of compression and 2 stages of expansion has an overall pressure ratio of 9. Air enters the compressors at the temperature of 320 K while, being intercooled between the stages. Air enters the first compressor at 100 kPa and the pressure ratio of cach of the compressors are selected in a way that minimizes the total power input for the compressors. The high-pressure turbine (First one) drives the compressors and the low-pressure one produces power output. The compressors and both the high-pressure and low-pressure turbines can be assumed ideal. To increase the efficiency of the cycle a regenerator with effectiveness of 85% is used to recover some heat from the exhaust of the second turbine. In this cycle, air with the temperature of 1400 K enters the first turbine. After expansion in the first turbine, air is reheated to the same temperature at the inlet of the first turbine (1400 K). You can consider constant specific heats of c,=1.005…
