Question

Your selection was a gas-turbine power plant operating on an ideal Brayton cycle and according to the manufacturing datasheets it has the following specifications:


- A pressure ratio of 14.
- The gas temperature is 300 K at the compressor inlet and 1400 K at the turbine inlet.
- The mass flow rate of air is 0.783 kg/s


Under the assumption of standard air, perform the following:

1. The gas temperature of the compressor and the turbine exits,


2. Back-work ratio


3. Find the power output


4. Compare the power output of the basic Brayton cycle with the power output of the best modified Rankine cycle.


5. Compare the final efficiency of the basic Brayton cycle with those obtained from Project-1 for the modified Rankine cycle. How would you explain that the Brayton cycle is more preferred over the Rankin cycle in the power plant station?



For the gas turbine plant described in Task.1, investigate the principles of operation of a gas turbine plant by considering the following:


1. Construct TS and PV diagram


2. Construct simple sketches showing, all the competent for open and closed gas turbine engine


3. Describe the operating role of each component in the engine and the main difference between closed and open gas turbine engine


4. How would a closed gas turbine engine be combined with a steam power plant engine?
