Question: 9 - 9 2 E A simple ideal Brayton cycle uses helium as the working fluid, operates at 1 2 psia and 6 0 F

9-92E A simple ideal Brayton cycle uses helium as the working fluid, operates at 12 psia and 60F at the compressor inlet, has a pressure ratio of 14, and a maximum cycle temperature of 1300F. How much power will this cycle produce when the helium circulation flow through the cycle is 100 lbm/min? Use constant specific heats at room temperature.
9-93E Repeat Problem 9-92E when the isentropic efficiency of the turbine is 95 percent.
