A gas turbine unit is used to produce electric power through a generator. The air
inlet to the compressor is at 100 Kpa and 25 °C which is compressed to 800 Kpa and
220 °C with mass flow rate of 0.4 Kg/s. The heat lost in the compressor is 110 KJ/kg.
The compressed air is mixed with a fuel to produce a 0.9 Kg/s of superheated steam at
0.8 Mpa and 730 °C (Cp = 4.64 KJ/Kg. K) at the turbine input while assumed to leaves
the turbine as a compressed air at 300 °C. Calculate:
