Thermodynamics 2 QUESTION 3 A stationary gas-turbine power plant operates on a simple ideal Brayton cycle with air as the working fluid. The air enters the compressor at 95 kPa and 290 K and the turbine at 760 kPa and 1100 K. Heat is transferred to air at a rate of 35,000 kJ/s. Compare the power delivered by for the following assumptions: a. assuming constant specific heats at room temperature b. accounting for the variation of specific heats with temperature.
