Compressors, Gas Turbines and Jet Engines A closed gas turbine in which fuel is burnt directly in the air is not possible because of High friction losses Paucity of O2 Increasing gas temperature High specific volume High friction losses Paucity of O2 Increasing gas temperature High specific volume ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Compressors, Gas Turbines and Jet Engines For a two stage reciprocating compressor, compression from p₁ to p₃ is with perfect intercooling and no pressure losses. If compression in both the cylinders follows the same polytropic process and the atmospheric pressure is pa, then the intermediate pressure p₂ is given by p₂ = Pa p₃/p₁ p₂ = p₁. p₃ P₂ = Pa × p₃/p₁ p₂ = (p₁ + p₃)/2 p₂ = Pa p₃/p₁ p₂ = p₁. p₃ P₂ = Pa × p₃/p₁ p₂ = (p₁ + p₃)/2 ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
