Mechanical Engineering

Air enters the compressor of a regenerative air-standard Braytoncycle with a volumetric flow rate of 100 m3/s at 0.8 bar, 280 K.The compressor pressure ratio is 20, and the maximum cycletemperature is 1800 K. For the compressor, the isentropicefficiency is 92% and for the turbine the isentropic efficiency is95%. For a regenerator effectiveness of 86%, determine: (a) the netpower developed, in MW. (b) the rate of heat addition in thecombustor, in MW. (c) the percent thermal efficiency of thecycle.
