Helium is used as the working fluid in an ideal Brayton cycle. Gas enters the compressor at 27°C and 20 bar and is discharged at 60 bar. The gas is heated to 1000°C before entering the turbine. The cooler returns the hot turbine exhaust to the temperature of the compressor inlet. Determine: (a) the temperatures at the end of compression and expansion, (b) the heat supplied, the heat rejected and the net work per kg of He, and (c) the cycle efficiency and the heat rate. Take cp = 5.1926kJ/kg.K.

A compression ratio of 8 is achieved by using an ideal air-standard Otto cycle engine. The working fluid has a pressure of 100 kPa and a temperature of 27°C at the start of the compression process, and the constant volume heat addition process supplies 800 kJ/kg of heat to the working fluid. What are the (a )the temperature, volume and pressure of the air at the end of each process (in K, m3 and kPa) (b) the net work output/cycle [kJ/kg], and (c) the thermal efficiency of this engine cycle
Required information Consider an ideal gas-turbine cycle with two stages of compression and two stages of expansion. The pressure ratio across each stage of the compressor and turbine is 3. The air enters each stage of the compressor at 300 K and each stage of the turbine at 12o0 K. Use variable specific heats. Determine the back work ratio and the thermal efficiency of the cycle, assuming a regenerator with 80 percent effectiveness is used. The back work ratio is %. The thermal efficiency is %.

3. An air-standard Diesel cycle has a compression ratio of 18.2. Air is at 27oC and 100 kPa at the beginning of the compression process and at 1700 K at the end of the heat-addition process. Using constant specific heats at room temperature, determine (a) the cutoff ratio, (b) the heat rejection per unit mass, and (c) the thermal efficiency. Illustrated and give the correct answer
Required information. The net work output and the thermal efficiency for the Carnot and the simple ideal Rankine cycles with steam as the working fluid are to be calculated and compared. Steam enters the turbine in both cases at 10 MPa as a saturated vapor, and the condenser pressure is 50 kPa. In the Rankine cycle, the condenser exit state is saturated liquid and, in the Carnot cycle, the boiler inlet state is saturated liquid. Draw the T-s diagrams for both cycles.

Thank you so much in advance!! The net power produced by the cycle is 5 MW. The pressure ratio across the compressor is 8:1. Air enters the compressor at T1 = 300 K, P1 =100 kPa and is heated by an external heat exchanger to T5 =1200 K before entering the turbine. Ten percent (10%) of the mass entering the compressor is removed from the compressor at 500 kPa. The working fluid is air with constant specific heats and has properties as follows: Cv = 0.718 kJ/(kg-K), Cp = 1.005 kJ/(kg-K), R = 0.287 kJ/(kg-K), k = 1.4 (A) Sketch a T-s diagram for the cycle. (B) Determine the temperature at which the removed air leaves the compressor, in K. (C) Determine the total mass flow rate of the air into the compressor at 300 K, 100 kPa, in kg/s.
In a reheat cycle steam at 15 MPa, 540°C enters the engine and expands to 1.95 MPa. At this point the steam is withdrawn and passed through a reheater. It reenters the engineat 540°C.
