A Brayton cycle with regeneration has a compression ratio of rp=7.4 and uses air as the
working fluid. Minimum temperature and pressure of the cycle are 279 Kand 96 kPa,
respectively. Maximum temperature of the cycle is 1,019 K. Isentropic efficiency of the
compressor is 89% and isentropic efficiency of the turbine is 85%. Heat is transferred to air
at an amount of 295 kJ/kg. Assuming constant specific heats at room temperature, calculate
the effectiveness of the regenerator, in %.
Properties of air: C,=0.718 kJ/(kgK), C,=1.005 kJ/(kgK), R=0.287 kJ/(kgK), k=1.4
Note: 0<effectiveness < 100
Example: Answers should be written like 45.76, do not write 0.4576
Örnek: Cevabınız 45.76 formatında yazılmalıdır, 0.4576 olarak yazmayınız
