Problem 19E
Cooling method for gas turbines. Refer to the Journal of Engineering for Gas Turbines and Power (Jan. 2005) study of a high-pressure inlet fogging method for a gas turbine engine, Exercise 7.40 (p. 378). Recall that the heat rate (kilo - joules per kilowatt per hour) was measured for each in a sample of 67 gas turbines augmented with high-pressure inlet fogging. In addition, several other variables were measured, including cycle speed (revolutions per minute), inlet temperature (°C), exhaust gas temperature (°C), cycle pressure ratio, and air mass flow rate (kilograms per second). The data are saved in the file. (The first and last five observations are listed in the table at the bottom of the page.)
a. Write a first-order model for heat rate (y) as a function of speed, inlet temperature, exhaust temperature, cycle pressure ratio, and airflow rate.
b. Fit the model to the data using the method of least squares.
c. Give practical interpretations of the β estimates.
d. Find the model standard deviation, s, and interpret its value.
e. Conduct a test for overall model utility using α = .01.
f. Find and interpret R2a.
g. Is there sufficient evidence (at α = .01) to indicate that heat rate (y) is linearly related to inlet temperature?

ANSWER:
Step 1 of 10
a) A first-order model for heat rate (y) as a function of speed () inlet temperature ()
exhaust temperature () , cycle pressure () and air?ow rate () is
Where are all quantitative variables that are not functions of other
independent variables and represent the slope of the line relating y
to when all the other x's are held fixed.
