Air enters the compressor of an ideal air-standard Brayton cycle at 100 kPa, 300 K, with a volumetric flow rate of 5 m3/s. The turbine inlet temperature is 1800 K. For a compressor pressure ratio of 9, determine: (a) the percent thermal efficiency of the cycle. (b) the back work ratio. (c) the net power developed, in kW.
In this problem, first Calculate the temperature at outlet of compressor and turbine and mass flow rate of air in given brayton cycle after that Calculate thermal efficiency, back work ratio and net power developed as below:-
