9.63 Air enters the compressor of a regenerative air-standard Brayton cycle with a volumetric flow rate of 60 m3/s at 0.8 bar, 280 K. The compressor pressure ratio is 20, and the maximum cycle temperature is 2100 K. For the compressor, the isentropic efficiency is 92% and for the turbine the isentropic efficiency is 95%. For a regenerator effectiveness of 85%, determine (a) the net power developed, in MW. (b) the rate of heat addition in the combustor, in MW. (c) the thermal efficiency of the cycle. (d) Plot the quantities calculated in parts (a) through (c) for regenerator effectiveness values ranging from 0 to 100%. Discuss.
