An ideal regenerator (T3 5 T5) is added to a simple ideal

Chapter 9, Problem 9102E

(choose chapter or problem)

An ideal regenerator (T3 5 T5) is added to a simple ideal Brayton cycle (see Fig. P999). Air enters the compressor of this cycle at 16 psia and 1008F; the pressure ratio is 11; and the maximum cycle temperature is 19408F. What is the thermal efficiency of this cycle? Use constant specific heats at room temperature. What would the thermal efficiency of the cycle be without the regenerator?
