Explanation Show the simple Brayton cycle, and with air as the working fluid on T − s diagram as in Figure (1). Write the temperature and pressure relation ratio for the process 1-2. T 2 = T 1 ( P 2 P 1 ) ( k − 1 ) / k T 2 = T 1 ( r p ) ( k − 1 ) / k (I) Here, the specific heat ratio is k and pressure ratio is r p , temperature at state 1 is T 1 , temperature at state 2 is T 2 , pressure at state 1 is P 1 and pressure at state 2 is P 2 . Write the temperature and pressure relation ratio for the process 3-4. T 4 = T 3 ( P 4 P 3 ) ( k − 1 ) / k T 4 = T 3 ( 1 r p ) ( k − 1 ) / k (II) Here, temperature at state 4 is T 4 , temperature at state 3 is T 3 , pressure at state 4 is P 4 and pressure at state 3 is P 3 . Conclusion: The exit temperature of compressor and turbine are equal ( T 2 = T 4 ) . From Equation (I) and Equation (II), obtain the pressure ratio ( r p )

motor supplies 200 kW at 6 Hz to flange A of the shaft shown in Figure. Gear B transfers 125 W of power to operating machinery in the factory, and the remaining power in the shaft is mansferred by gear D. Shafts (1) and (2) are solid aluminum (G = 28 GPa) shafts that have the same diameter and an allowable shear stress of t= 40 MPa. Shaft (3) is a solid steel (G = 80 GPa) shaft with an allowable shear stress of t = 55 MPa. Determine: a) the minimum permissible diameter for aluminum shafts (1) and (2) b) the minimum permissible diameter for steel shaft (3). c) the rotation angle of gear D with respect to flange A if the shafts have the minimum permissible diameters as determined in (a) and (b).
