Question
A gas turbine receives 40,000 CFM of
air at 14 psia, 60 F, and compresses to
98 psia. Liquid octane fuel with CP =
0.53 Btu/lb R is injected into the
combustors at a rate of f = 0.01635 Ib
fuel/ Ib air. The combustion is complete
with a release of 19,300 Btu/lb. CP of air
= 0.24 Btu/lb-R, K= 1.4. Determine:
1. The temperature entering the
Turbine, R
2. The net horsepower delivered, HP
3. The cycle efficiency, %
