2. The intake of the compressor of an air-standard brayton cycle is 40,000 cfm at 15 psia and 90°F. The compression ratio, k = 5 and the temperature at the turbine inlet is 1440°F. The exit pressure of the turbine is 15 psia. Determine the net work, cycle efficiency and the mean effective pressure.
