i need the answer quickly
In a closed cycle gas turbine, there is two stage compressor and two-stage
turbine. All the components are mounted on the same shaft. The pressure
and temperature of air at inlet to the first stage compressor are 1.5 bar
and 20°C respectively. The maximum cycle pressure and temperature are
limited to 750°C and 6 bar. A perfect intercooling and reheating are used
between the compressors and the turbines. A regenerator whose
effectiveness is 0.7 was employed. Assuming the compressors and
turbines efficiencies as 0.82, calculate:
a. Thermal efficiency of the cycle.
b. Mass of working fluid for a power output of 350 kw.
Assume the working fluid is air has C, = 1.005 kJ/kg K, y = 1.4.
