Question: Problem 1 :A gas turbine engine is operating at a surrounding temperature of 2 9 8 K . The pressure ratio in the compressor is

Problem 1:A gas turbine engine is operating at a surrounding temperature of 298 K. The pressure ratio in the compressor is 25 and the Combustor exit temperature is 1100 oC. The performance of different parts of the engine is as follows:- Compressor : c =75%, Cp =1.075 kJ/kg .K,=1.39- Combustor: b =98%, rp =0.93, Cp =1.12 kJ/kgK, QR =42,600 kJ/kg,- Turbine : t =87%, Cp =1.12 kJ/kg.K,=1.34. a- Determine the specific power output of the engine, efficiency of engine and SFC. b- Repeat part (a) if the compressor efficiency is increased to 85%.c- Repeat part (b) if the combustion temperature is also increased to 1320 oC.
