gas turbine with reheat has a TIT of 1230°C, a compressor pressure ratio of 16, and compressor and turbine efficiencies of 0.88 and 0.91, respectively. The pressure ratios of both the HP and LP turbine stages are the same. The reheat occurs up to a temperature of 1230°C. The compressor inlet conditions are 20°C and 1.01 bar. The fuel mass flow rate may be ignored. Determine (a) the pressures and temperatures at all real states of the cycle, (b) the turbine and compressor specific works and their ratio, and (c) the cycle thermal efficiency.

Question

 A gas turbine with reheat has a TIT of 1230°C, a compressor pressure
ratio of 16, and compressor and turbine efficiencies of 0.88 and 0.91,
respectively. The pressure ratios of both the HP and LP turbine stages are
the same. The reheat occurs up to a temperature of 1230°C. The compressor inlet conditions are 20°C and 1.01 bar. The fuel mass flow rate may be
ignored.
Determine (a) the pressures and temperatures at all real states of the
cycle, (b) the turbine and compressor specific works and their ratio, and
(c) the cycle thermal efficiency.
