Efficiency of compressor in actual gas turbine cycle Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Isentropic Efficiency of Compressor = (Temperature at Compressor Exit-Temperature at Compressor Inlet)/(Actual Temperature at Compressor Exit-Temperature at Compressor Inlet)
η_C = (T₂-T₁)/(T_2,actual-T₁)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Isentropic Efficiency of Compressor - Isentropic Efficiency of Compressor is the ratio of isentropic work of compressor to actual work of compressor.
Temperature at Compressor Exit - (Measured in Kelvin) - Temperature at Compressor Exit is the temperature of the gases exiting the compressor.
Temperature at Compressor Inlet - (Measured in Kelvin) - Temperature at Compressor Inlet is the temperature of the gases entering the compressor.
Actual Temperature at Compressor Exit - (Measured in Kelvin) - Actual Temperature at Compressor Exit is the temperature of the gases exiting the compressor considering the losses throughout the compression process.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Temperature at Compressor Exit: 420 Kelvin --> 420 Kelvin No Conversion Required
Temperature at Compressor Inlet: 298.15 Kelvin --> 298.15 Kelvin No Conversion Required
Actual Temperature at Compressor Exit: 430 Kelvin --> 430 Kelvin No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

η_C = (T₂-T₁)/(T_2,actual-T₁) --> (420-298.15)/(430-298.15)

Evaluating ... ...
