Efficiency of a Gas Turbine
This application plots the efficiency of a gas turbine (based upon an ideal Brayton cycle) as a function of the compressor pressure ratio.
A procedure is developed that computes the efficiency as a function of the compressor inlet temperature and pressure, the combustor outlet temperature, and the compressor pressure ratio; any of these parameters can be modified and explored.
The working fluid is air, whose thermodynamic properties of air are provided by the ThermophysicalData package.
