Dear learner as per the HOMEWORKLIB POLICY, we are told to do only 1st
question in case of multiple questions but, I am doing some extra
just for you! Good luck.

Problem 4 A steam turbine is used to generate power. The turbine expansion process is "adiabatic," this means that there is no heat transfer during this process. The inlet and exit conditions are listed below T1 = 600-degF P2 10-psia T2 1932-degF x2 0.9 P1 500-psia BTU lb Adiabatio Steam Turbine h1:= 1299.1·ww s1 1.5652.

Air initially at 120 psia and 500*F is expanded by an adiabatic turbine to 15 psia and 200* F. Assuming air can be treated as an ideal gas and has variable specific heat. a) Determine the specific work output of the actual turbine (Btu/lbm). b) Determine the amount of specific entropy generation during the irreversible process (Btu/lbm R). c) Determine the isentropic efficiency of this turbine (%). d) Suppose the turbine now operates as an ideal compressor (reversible and adiabatic)...
Problem 1 - Gas Turbine Engine. Assume the gas turbine engine operates on basic non-ideal Brayton cycle with the following specifications Inlet Condition: Dry air at 537 R and 14.7 psia Pressure Ratio: 24.2 Actual Exhaust Temperature: 950 F Compressor and Turbine Efficiency: 85% Actual Power Output 34 MW Using given/assumed values, determine: a) firing temperature, b) cycle efficiency, c) air mass flow rate.

1. Water enters the constant 130-mm inside-diameter tubes of a boiler at 7 MPa and 65°C and leaves the tubes at 6 MPa and 450°C with a velocity of 80 m/s. Calculate the velocity of the water at the tube inlet and the inlet volume flow rate. [5-14] 2. Air enters a nozzle steadily at 50 psia, 140°F, and 150 ft/s and leaves at 14.7 psia and 900 ft/s. The heat loss from the nozzle is estimated to be 6.5...
Combined cycle power plants are common because of their high efficiency and scalability. They typically combine a gas turbine cycle (the Brayton Cycle) with a steam turbine cycle (the Rankine Cycle) [1]. The goal of this project is to determine the operating efficiency and profitability of a realistic combined cycle power plant. The power plant is as follows: 1. A natural gas-fired Brayton cycle with mÛ air,Br = 1.25 kg s−1 . (a) Ambient air at 1 bar and 300...
Need help for this Brayton Cycle problem.
Please help me
4. (30 marks) A gas-turbine power plant operates on the simple Brayton cycle between the pressure limits of 100 kPa and 800 kPa. The T-s diagram of this cycle is shown in Fig. 2. Air enters the compressor at 30°C and leaves at 330°C at a mass flow rate of 200 kg/s. The maximum cycle temperature is 1400 K. During operation of the cycle, the net power output is measured...
4. An ideal Carnot power generation cycle using air is represented by the diagram below. The properties of the state points are given in the table below. Take the properties of air to be cp 0040.717. and RBhthe ns: and G, have been 1.004 chosen as the average values between the high temperature and low temperature processes, in order for you to not have to worry about the temperature dependence of cp and c, for this problem.)
