    Exergy Analysis of Brayton Cycle: by Nadim Ahmed Saheb Raza MD Nazish Hayat Azam

    Md Nazish Hayat Azam
    The document discusses exergy analysis of the Brayton cycle to maximize thermal efficiency. It describes the history and components of the Brayton cycle, including the constant pressure heat addition and rejection processes in the PV and TS diagrams. The thermal efficiency of the cycle depends on pressure ratio and specific heat ratio of the working fluid. Regeneration and intercooling can further improve efficiency by reducing the temperature differences and utilizing otherwise wasted heat. The proposed work is to analyze the effects of compressor and turbine isentropic efficiency as well as regeneration, preheating, and intercooling on the thermal efficiency of the Brayton cycle.

    objective
    The objective of exergy analysis of brayton cycle is to
    get maximum thermal efficiency .In
    thermodynamics, the exergy (in older usage,
    available work and/or availability) of a system is the
    maximum useful work possible during a process that
    brings the system into equilibrium with a heat
    reservoir. ... After the system and surroundings reach
    equilibrium, the exergy is zero

    History and development
    The Braytoncycle was proposed by George Braytonin
    1870 for use in reciprocating engines.
    Modern day gas turbines operate on Braytoncycle and
    work with rotating machinery.
    Gas turbines operate in open-cycle mode, but can be
    modelled as closed cycle using air-standard
    assumptions.
    Combustion and exhaust replaced by constant
    pressure heat addition and rejection

    Brayton cycle (Introduction)
    The Braytoncycle consists of four internally reversible
    processes:1-2 Isentropic compression (in a compressor)
    2-3 Constant-pressure heat addition
    3-4 Isentropic expansion (in a turbine)
    4-1 Constant-pressure heat rejection

    Parameters Affecting Thermal
    Efficiency
    The thermal efficiency of an ideal Brayton
    cycle depends on the pressure ratio, rp of
    the gas turbine and the specific heat ratio,
    k of the working fluid.
    The thermal efficiency increases with both
    of these parameters, which is also the
    case for actual gas turbines.
    A plot of thermal efficiency versus the
    pressure ratio is shown , for the case of k
    =1.4.

    Braytoncycle with regeneration
    Regeneration can be carried
    out by using the hot air
    exhausting from the turbine
    to heat up the compressor
    exit flow.
    The thermal efficiency of
    the Braytoncycle increases as
    a part of the heat rejected is
    re-used.
    Regeneration decreases the
    heat input (thus fuel)
    requirements for the same
    net work output. 11
    Braytoncycle with regeneration
    1:The extent to which a regenerator
    approaches an ideal regenerator is
    called the effectiveness, εand is
    defined as
    ε=qregen,act/ qregen,max = (h5-h2)/
    (h4-h2)
    2:Under the cold-air-standard
    assumptions, the thermal efficiency
    of an ideal Braytoncycle with
    regeneration is:
    3:The thermal efficiency depends
    upon the temperature as well as the
    pressure ratio
    12
    Factors Affecting Thermal
    Efficiency
    Thermal efficiency of Brayton cycle
    with regeneration depends on:
    a) ratio of the minimum to
    maximum temperatures, and
    b) the pressure ratio.
    Regeneration is most effective at
    lower pressure ratios and small
    minimum-to-maximum temperature
    ratios.
