Q-4: In an industrial gas turbine plant, air is compressed through a pressure ratio of 5/1 starting from 300 K. The air then enters a regenerating heat exchanger of 80% effectiveness. The air leaving the heat exchanger and enters the combustion chamber to reach a maximum temperature of 1100 K. The isentropic efficiency of the compressor and the turbine is 87.5% and 89.3 % respectively. The air mass flow rate of 10 kg's suffers a pressure drop of 0.02 bar through the combustion chamber. For these conditions find: • Power output of the plant. • Thermal cycle efficiency. • Work ratio.

Q-4: In an industrial gas turbine plant, air is compressed through a pressure ratio of 5/1
starting from 300 K. The air then enters a regenerating heat exchanger of 80 %
effectiveness. The air leaving the heat exchanger and enters the combustion chamber to
reach a maximum temperature of 1100 K. The isentropic efficiency of the compressor
and the turbine is 87.5% and 89.3% respectively. The air mass flow rate of 10 kg/s
suffers a pressure drop of 0.02 bar through the combustion chamber. For these conditions
find:
• Power output of the plant.
• Thermal cycle efficiency.
• Work ratio.
Take a constant properties of the working fluid around the cycle with C, = 1.1 kJ/kg K,
and y 1.33. Draw a clear sketch of the cycle on a T-s diagram.
