Solution

The correct option is A 689.64kJ/kg


Given data:
cp=0.98kJ/kgK;cv=0.7538kJ/kgK
p1=20bar;T1=1500K;p2=1bar
ηisen=0.94
γ=cpcv=0.980.7538=1.3
For process 12s
T1T2s=(p1p2)γ1γ
1500T2s=(201)1.311.3=(20)0.2307=1.996
or T2s=751.50K
ηisen=T1T2T1T2s
0.94=1500T21500751.50=1500T2748.5
or 1500T2=0.94×748.5=703.59
or T2=796.41K
Work developed by th turbine per kgof gas,
w=cp(T1T2)
=0.98(1500796.41)
=689.51kJ/kg
