Finding overall cycle efficiency


Question 1: Supposing that a 20 MW simple cycle gas turbine with a firing temperature of 1600 K develop an analysis of a combined cycle.  Suppose that Tmax in the Rankine cycle is 560 C, Pmax = 60 Bar and Pmin = 0.08 Bar. Suppose an air inlet temperature of 300 K and use realistic component efficiencies. (ηt = 0.88, ηc = 0.86 and ηst = 0.89). You might use interactive thermodynamics on this assignment however do a hand computation on the waste heat recovery steam generator. You might use an open feed-water heater if you want however not a reheat. Find out the overall cycle efficiency.
