A Regenerative Gas-Turbine cycle operates under pressure ratio of 9. The compressor inlet conditions are 18°C and 1 bar and its efficiency is 85%. The thermal ration of the heat exchanger is 80%. Heat is added to the compressed air after leaving the heat exchanger till its temperature became 9000C. The air then expands adiabatically in a 75% efficient turbine. If the air mass flow rate not exceeds 10 kg/s, determine the rate of heat added, the turbine work, the back work ratio, and the cycle thermal efficiency.
