In tropical climates, the water near the surface of the ocean remains warm throughout the year as a result of solar energy absorption. in the deeper parts of the ocean, however, the water remains at a relatively low temperature since the sun’s rays cannot penetrate very far. it is proposed to take advantage of this temperature difference and construct a power plant that will absorb heat from the warm water near the surface and reject the waste heat to the cold water a few hundred meters below. determine the maximum thermal efficiency of such a plant if the water temperatures at the two respective locations are 24 and 38c.

Abrayton cycle operates with a regenerator on the air-standard with properties evaluated at 400 k. the tem- perature of the air entering the compressor is 350k while the temperature of the air exiting the compressor is 600 k. the temperature of the air entering the turbine is 1600 k. the overall cycle produced 600 kj/kg of net work out. assuming a regenerator effectiveness of 0.8, what is the temperature of the air before heat addition (combustion)? draw this process on a t - s diagram
