Air enters the turbine of a gas turbine at 1200 kPa, 1200

Chapter 9, Problem 9.70

(choose chapter or problem)

Air enters the turbine of a gas turbine at 1200 kPa, 1200 K, and expands to 100 kPa in two stages. Between the stages, the air is reheated at a constant pressure of 350 kPa to 1200 K.

The expansion through each turbine stage is isentropic. Determine, in kJ per kg of air flowing,

(a) the work developed by each stage.

(b) the heat transfer for the reheat process.

(c) the increase in net work as compared to a single stage of expansion with no reheat.
