Question

Instead, assume variable specific heat

A gas-turbine power plant operates on the simple
Brayton cycle between the pressure limits of 100 and 800 kPa.
Air enters the compressor at 308C and leaves at 3308C at a
mass flow rate of 200 kg/s. The maximum cycle temperature
is 1400 K. During operation of the cycle, the net power output
is measured experimentally to be 60 MW. Assume constant
properties for air at 300 K with cv 5 0.718 kJ/kg·K, cp 5
1.005 kJ/kg·K, R 5 0.287 kJ/kg·K, k 5 l.4.
(a) Sketch the T-s diagram for the cycle.
(b) Determine the isentropic efficiency of the turbine for
these operating conditions.
(c) Determine the cycle thermal efficiency.
