**Problem 09.097 - Modified Brayton Cycle with Two-Step Expansion - DEPENDENT MULTI-PART PROBLEM - ASSIGN ALL PARTS**

A gas-turbine power plant operates on a modified Brayton cycle shown in the figure with an overall pressure ratio of 8. Air enters the compressor at 0°C and 110 kPa. The maximum cycle temperature is 1500 K. The compressor and the turbines are isentropic. The high-pressure turbine develops just enough power to run the compressor. Assume constant properties for air at 300 K with \( c_V = 0.718 \, \text{kJ/kg} \cdot \text{K} \), \( c_P = 1.005 \, \text{kJ/kg} \cdot \text{K} \), \( R = 0.287 \, \text{kJ/kg} \cdot \text{K} \), and \( k = 1.4 \).

**Diagram Explanation:**

In the cycle diagram:

1. **Compressor** - Air enters the compressor (indicated as state 1) and is compressed to a higher pressure at state 2.
2. **Combustion Chamber** - Air flows into the combustion chamber where it is heated at constant pressure, moving from state 2 to state 3.
3. **High-Pressure Turbine** - The high-temperature air expands through the high-pressure turbine, partially extracting work and moving to state 4.
4. **Low-Pressure Turbine** - Further expansion occurs in the low-pressure turbine from state 4 to state 5, extracting additional work.

**Problem 09.097.a - P-v and T-s Diagrams for Modified Brayton Cycle**

Sketch the T-s diagram for the cycle. Label the data states.
