2013-3-6 Learning Outcomes Perform air-standard analyses of gas turbine power plants based on the Brayton cycle and its modifications,including: sketching T-s diagrams and evaluating property data at principal states. applying mass,energy,entropy,and exergy balances. determining net power output,thermal efficiency,back work ratio,and the effects of compressor pressure ratio. Learning Outcomes For subsonic and supersonic flows through nozzles and diffusers: demonstrate understanding of the effects of area change,the effects of back pressure on mass flow rate,and the occurrence of choking and normal shocks. analyze the flow of ideal gases with constant specific heats. 22013-3-6 2 Learning Outcomes ►Perform air-standard analyses of gas turbine power plants based on the Brayton cycle and its modifications, including: ►sketching T-s diagrams and evaluating property data at principal states. ►applying mass, energy, entropy, and exergy balances. ►determining net power output, thermal efficiency, back work ratio, and the effects of compressor pressure ratio.
