Question:
A simple ideal Brayton cycle uses argon as the working fluid. At the beginning of the compression, P1 = 15 psia and T1 = 80°F; the maximum cycle temperature is 1200°F; and the pressure in the combustion chamber is 150 psia. The argon enters the compressor through a 3 ft2 opening with a velocity of 200 ft/s. Determine the rate at which entropy is generated by the cycle. The temperature of the source is the same as the maximum cycle temperature, and the temperature of the sink is the same as the minimum cycle temperature.
