Question:

A study is to be made using liquid ammonia as the fuel in a gas-turbine engine. Consider the compression and combustion processes of this engine.
a) Air enters the compressor at 100 kPa, 25C, and is compressed to 1600 kPa, where the isentropic compressor efficiency is 87%. Determine the exit temperature and the work input per kilo mole.
b) Two kilo moles of liquid ammonia at 25C and x times theoretical air from the compressor enter the combustion chamber. What is x if the adiabatic flame temperature is to be fixed at 1600 K?
