26. At the design speed the following data apply to a gas turbine set employing the heat exchanger : Isentropic
efficiency of compressor = 75%, isentropic efficiency of the turbine = 85%, mechanical transmission effi-
ciency = 99%, combustion efficiency = 98%, mass flow = 22.7 kg/s, pressure ratio = 6 : 1, heat exchanger
effectiveness = 75%, maximum cycle temperature = 1000 K.
The ambient air temperature and pressure are 15°C and 1.013 bar respectively. Caleulate :
(i) The net power output
(iii) Thermal efficiency of the cycle.
Take the lower calorific value of fuel as 43125 kJ/kg and assume no pressure-loss in heat exchanger and
combustion chamber.
(ii) Specific fuel consumption
(Ans. (i) 2019 kW (iü) 0.4799 kg/kWh (iii) 16.7%)
