Where are the isentropic efficiencies of compressor and turbine
respectively. T3 and T1 are maximum and minimum temperature of the
cycle respectively. γ = .
b) With neat sketch, explain turbine cycle with regenerator and derive cycle
06 2 1,2 L3
efficiency.(Method of improvement of efficiency)
4) a) In a gas turbine plant, air enters the compressor at 15°C and it is compressed
through a pressure ratio of 4 with isentropic efficiency of 85%. The air-fuel ratio
is 80 and the calorific value of fuel is 42000 kJ/kg. The turbine inlet
08 2 1,2 L3
temperature is 1000 K and the isentropic efficiency of the turbine is 82%.
Calculate the overall efficiency and air intake for a power output of 260 kW. Take
the mass of fuel in account.
b) Air is compressed from 100kPa, 300K to 1000kPa in a two stage compressor with
intercooling between stages. The air is compressed to 300kPa and is cooled
back to 300K in an intercooler before entering the second stage compressor.
Each compression stage is isentropic. For steady state operation and negligible
changes in kinetic and potential energy from inlet to exit, determine: a) 07 2 1,2 L3
Temperature at exit of second compressor, b) The total compressor work
input per unit of mass flow, c) Reduction work input by intercooling and two
stage compression, d) Isothermal compression work.
