Air enters the compressor of an air-standard Brayton cycle with a volumetric flow rate of 60 m3/s at 100 bar, 320 K. The compressor pressure ratio is 20, and the maximum cycle temperature is 2200 K. For the compressor, the isentropic efficiency is 92% and for the turbine, the isentropic efficiency is 95%. Determine (a). the net power developed, in MW, (b). the back work ratio, and (c). the thermal efficiency of the cycle.

An ideal otto cycle with air as the working fluid has a compression ratio of 8. the minimum and maximum temperatures in the cycle are 300 k and 1340 k. use constant specific heats at room temperature to determine (a) the amount of heat transferred to the air during the heat- addition kj/kg, (b) the thermal efficiency, and (c) the thermal efficiency of a carnot cycle ope limits. process, in rating between the same temperature
