Mechanical Engineering

Air enters the compressor of a simple gas turbine atp1 = 14 lbf/in2, T1 = 520°R. Theisentropic efficiencies of the compressor and turbine are 83 and87%, respectively. The compressor pressure ratio is 16 and thetemperature at the turbine inlet is 2500°R. The volumetric flowrate of the air entering the compressor is 9000 ft3/min.Use an air-standard analysis.

Determine all temperatures at each state.

A) Determine the net power developed, in Btu/h.

B) Determine the thermal efficiency of the cycle

C) the temperatures at the compressor and turbine exits in°R
