Question
20. In an open cycle constant pressure gas turbine air enters the compressor at 1 bar and 300 K. The pressure
of air after the compression is 4 bar. The isentropic efficiencies of compressor and turbine are 78% and 85%
respectively. The air-fuel ratio is 80 : 1. Calculate the power developed and thermal efficiency of the cycle
if the flow rate of air is 2.5 kg/s.
Takec = 1.005 kJkg K andy= 1.4 for air andc = 1.147 kJ/kg Kandy = 1.33 for gases. R = 0.287 kJ/kg K.
Calorific value of fuel = 42000 kJ/kg.
(Ans. 204.03 kW/kg of air ; 15.54%]
