Question: Consider an ideal jet propulsion cycle with a diffuser. Air enters the diffuser at 8 0 kPa and - 4 0 C with a velocity

Consider an ideal jet propulsion cycle with a diffuser. Air enters the diffuser at 80 kPa and -40C with a velocity of 200ms. The air velocity leaving the diffuser (point a) is negligible. The pressure leaving the compressor is 800 kPa . The air expands in the turbine to a pressure at which the turbine work is just equal to the compressor work. On leaving the turbine, the air expands in a nozzle to 80 kPa . The nozzle exit velocity is 900ms.
a) Show the process on a T-s diagram.
b) Find the pressure at the compressor inlet (point a).
c) Find the maximum temperature in the cycle.
