Question:

Consider the ideal regenerative Brayton cycle. Determine the pressure ratio that maximizes the thermal efficiency of the cycle and compare this value with the pressure ratio that maximizes the cycle net work. For the same maximumto- minimum temperature ratios, explain why the pressure ratio for maximum efficiency is less than the pressure ratio for maximum work.
