Air enters the compressor of a cold air-standard Brayton cycle with regeneration at 100 kPa, 300 K, with a mass flow rate of 6 kg/s. The compressor pressure ratio is 10, and the turbine inlet temperature is 1400 K. The turbine and compressor each have isentropic efficiencies of 80% and the regenerator effectiveness is 80%. For k 5 1.4, calculate (a) the thermal efficiency of the cycle. (b) the back work ratio. (c) the net power developed, in kW. (d) the rate of entropy production in the regenerator, in kW/K

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
