    Example 7

    A gas-turbine unit takes in air at 17°C and 1.01bar and the pressure ratio is 8/1. The
    compressor is driven by HP turbine and LP turbine drives a separate power shaft. The
    isentropic efficiencies of the compressor and the HP and LP turbines are 0.8, 0.85 and
    0.83 respectively. Calculate the pressure and temperature of the gases entering the
    power turbine, the net power developed by the unit kg/s mass flow rate, the work ratio
    and the cycle efficiency of the unit. The maximum cycle temperature is 650°C. For the
    compression process take Cp = 1.005kJ/kg K and γ=1.4; for the combustion process and
    for the expansion process take Cp = 1.15kJ/kg K and γ=1.333. Neglect the mass of fuel.

    From the equation for an isentropic process

    Now the work output from the HP turbine must be sufficient to drive the compressor,

    Turbine work output from HP turbine  C p T3  T4   295.62 kJ kg

    Similarly for turbine

    Hence, the pressure and temperature at entry to the LP turbine are 1.65bar and 665.94K
    (392.94°C).

    To find the power output it is now necessary to evaluate T5. The pressure ratio, (p4/p5),
    is given by (p4/p3)×(p3/p5), is given by
