Mechanical Engineering :: Compressors,Gas Dynamics and Gas Turbines
-
A closed cycle gas turbine consists of a
-
For maximum work, the reheating should be done to an intermediate pressure of (where p1 = Maximum pressure, and p2 = Minimum pressure)
-
The intercooler pressure, for minimum work required, for a two stage reciprocating air compressor, is given by (where p1 = Intake pressure of air, p2 = Intercooler pressure, and p3 = Delivery pressure of air)
-
The pressure of air at the beginning of the compression stroke is __________ the atmospheric pressure.
-
The pressure ratio in a centrifugal compressor can be increased by increasing the tip speed and lowering the inlet temperature.
-
A gas turbine used in air-craft should have low weight and small frontal area.
-
A closed cycle gas turbine works on
-
The clearance, in a single stage, single acting reciprocating air compressor does not effect the workdone on the air and the power required for compressing the air.
-
Air motors work on the cycle which is the reverse of the reciprocating air compressor cycle.
