Assume that you are part of a technical team that requieres to calculate the maximum power (maximum
income) of a Regenerative Gas Turbine with Intercooling and Reheating Power Plant. The inlet aire at the
compressor is 100 kPa, 300 K, with a mass flow rate of 10000 kg/s. The pressure ratio across the two
stage compressor is 10. The intercooler and reheater each opetarate at 300 kPa. The isentropic efficiencies
of each compressor is 80 %, and of each turbine is 90 %. The regenerator effectiveness is 70 %. At the
inlets to the turbine stages, the temperture is 1500 K. The inlet temperature at the second stage
compressor is 300 K.
1. (30%) Determine if the total turbine work output is maximized at this (reheater) pressure P7.
(Tip: use dW/dP7)
2. (40%) If the plant is expected to work for 8000 h/yr (A [h/yr]), and the power sell price is
$500/kWh (B $/kWh), what will it be the money income for selling the energy for one year?
