Question
A gas turbine plant of 1000 kW capacities takes the air at 1.11 bar and 15°C.
The pressure ratio of the cycle is 6 and maximum temperature is limited to
715°C. A regenerator of 65% effectiveness is added in the plant to increase
the overall efficiency of the plant. the pressure drop in the combustion
chamber is 0.12 bars as well as in the regenerator is also 0.12 bars.
Assuming the isentropic efficiency of the compressor 75% and of the turbine
is 75%, determine the plant thermal efficiency. Neglect the mass of the fuel.
The arrangement of the components are shown in figure 1 and the
processes are represented on T-S diagram as shown in Figure 2
