  1. The pressure ratio across a gas turbine (for air, specific heat at constant pressure, cp = 1040 J/ kg K and ratio of specific heats η = 1.4) is 10. If the inlet temperature to the turbine is 1200 K and the isentropic efficiency is 0.9, the gas temperature at turbine exit is ________K.
    1. 679.4 K
    2. 675.4 K
    3. 689.4 K
    4. 669.4 K
Correct Option: A


By question
T1 = 1200 K

rp = 10 =
P1
P1

ηT = 0.9
T2 =?

T2 = 621.53 K
ηT =
T1 - T2
T1 - T2

0.9 =
1200 - T2
1200 - 621.53

T2 = 679.4 K
