A gas-turbine power plant operating on the simple Brayton cycle has a pressure ratio of 7. Air enters the compressor at 0°C and 100 kPa. The maximum cycle temperature is 1500 K. The compressor has an isentropic efficiency of 80 percent, and the turbine has an isentropic efficiency of 90 percent. Assume constant properties for air at 300 K with cv = 0.718 kJ/kg·K, cp = 1.005 kJ/kg·K, R = 0.287 kJ/kg·K, and k = 1.4.a) sketch the T-s diagram for the cycle.
b) if the net power output is 150 MW, determine the volume flow rate of the air into the compressor, in m^3/s.
c) for a fixed compressor inlet velocity and flow area, explain the effect of increasing compressor inlet temperature (i. e., summertime operation versus wintertime operation) on the inlet mass flow rate and the net power output with all other parameters of the problem being the same.

Asteel tube (k=50 w/mk) of inner and outer diameter di = 20mm and do=26mm, respectively, is used to transfer heat from hot gases flowing over the tube (h-hot = 200w/m2k) to cold water flowing through the tube (h-cold = 8000 w/m2k). what is the cold-side overall heat transfer coefficient uc? to enhance heat transfer 16 straight fins of rectangular profile are installed longitudinally along the outer surface of the tube. the fins are equally spaced around the circumference of the tube, each having a thickness of 2mm and a length of 15mm. what is the corresponding overall heat transfer coefficient uc? *solve for uc in both cases*
