Calculate thermal efficiency of cycle and back work ratio


Air is considered as an ideal gas. Don't use gas table for gas properties, just assume that both cv and cp are constants. For air, cv=717, cp=1003, and R=287 J/kgK

Air enters the compressor of an ideal air-standard Brayton cycle at 100 kPa, 300 K, with a mass flow rate of 5 kg/s. The compressor pressure ratio is 10. For a turbine inlet temperature of 1500 K, calculate the thermal efficiency of the cycle, the back work ratio, the net power output, and the total heat transferred in the combustion chamber.
