Question: # 2 ONLY PLEASE 0 1 . Hot exhaust at 5 2 7 C ? is released from a metal processing plant into the atmosphere.

#2 ONLY PLEASE
01. Hot exhaust at 527C? is released from a metal processing plant into the atmosphere.
An engineer proposes to convert the "wasted" heat to electricity by building a heat engine
connected with a generator. The ambient temperature and pressure are 27C? and 1bar?(),
respectively.
Calculate the highest, theoretically possible energy conversion efficiency (in %) for
converting the wasted heat to electricity. (In other words, this should be the theoretical
maximum efficiency that no energy conversion system can exceed for the conditions given.)
Question 2
For Problems 2 and 3, consider a Brayton cycle with air as the working fluid with constant
=1.4 and gas constant =287Jkg.K, where I??(amb)=15C,P??(amb)=1bar, pressure ratio of 25,
and maximum cycle temperature, Imax=1527C.
P02. Assuming ideal operation, Calculate the compressor exhaust temperature (in C).
