Solution Step by step. Thanks A motor car gas turbine unit has two centrifugal compressors in series giving an overall pressure ratio of 6/1. The air leaving the HP compressor passes through a heat exchanger before entering the combustion chamber. The expansion is in two turbine stages, the first stage driving the compressors and the second stage driving the car through gearing. The gases leaving the LP turbine pass through the heat exchanger before exhausting to the atmosphere. The HP turbine inlet temperature is 800 ?C and the air inlet temperature to the unit is 15 ?C. The isentropic efficiency of the compression is 0.8, and that of each turbine is 0.85; the mechanical efficiency of each shaft is 98 %. The heat exchanger thermal ratio may be assumed to be 0.65. Neglecting pressure losses and changes in kinetic energy, calculate: (i) the overall cycle efficiency; (ii) the power developed when the air mass flow is 0.7 kg/s; (iii) the specific fuel consumption when the calorific value…

Steam at 4800 lbf/in.2, 1000 deg F enters the first stage of a supercritical reheat cycle including two turbine stages. The steam exiting the first-stage turbine at 600 lbf/in.2 is reheated at constant pressure to 1000 deg F. Each turbine stage and the pump have an isentropic efficiency of 85%. The condenser pressure is 1 lbf/in.2 If the net power output of the cycle is 100 MW, determine (a) the rate of heat transfer to the working fluid passing through the steam generator, in MW. (b) the rate of heat transfer from the working fluid passing through the condenser, in MW. (c) the cycle thermal efficiency.
