Determine the net power per unit mass flow rate (kJ/kg) and the cycle thermal efficiency
1. Air enters the compressor of a Brayton cycle at 20°C and 1 atm. The turbine inlet state is at 800°C and 3.4 atm. Determine the net power per unit mass flow rate (kJ/kg) and the cycle thermal efficiency 2. Solve Problem 8.76 using helium as the working fluid instead of air. Compare your results … Read more
