If one measurement is conducted in the four processes and shows that the pressure ratio (P3/P2)in the adiabatic expansion is 1.2 times the pressure ratio (P4/P1) in the adiabatic compression, can you justify if it is a Carnot engine? Please give your reason
An ideal gas turbine cycle consisting of 2 stages of compression and 2 stages of expansion has an overall pressure ratio of 9. Air enters the compressors at the temperature of 320 K while, being intercooled between the stages. Air enters the first compressor at 100 kPa and the pressure ratio of cach of the compressors are selected in a way that minimizes the total power input for the compressors. The high-pressure turbine (First one) drives the compressors and the low-pressure one produces power output. The compressors and both the high-pressure and low-pressure turbines can be assumed ideal. To increase the efficiency of the cycle a regenerator with effectiveness of 85% is used to recover some heat from the exhaust of the second turbine. In this cycle, air with the temperature of 1400 K enters the first turbine. After expansion in the first turbine, air is reheated to the same temperature at the inlet of the first turbine (1400 K).
