A gas-turbine power plant operates on ideal Brayton cycle which has the pressure ratio of 6. At the compressor inlet and turbine inlet, the gas temperature values are 450 K and 1400 K, respectively. Considering, the air-standard assumptions, a) determine the exit temperature values of the compressor and turbine, b) Find the thermal efficiency of the gas-turbine power plant if a regenerator component having an effectiveness of 75 percent is used in the system (assume the conditions of steady operation along the system, consider the air-standard assumptions to be applicable, neglect the potential and kinetic energy changes and their calculations, and the variation of specific heats with temperature has to be considered, hint: Linear interpolations are required in this question)
