Hydrogen enters the turbine of an Ericsson cycle at 920K,10 bar with a mass flow rate of 1kg/s. At the inlet to the compressor the condition is 300K and 1.5 bar. Assuming the ideal gas model and ignoring kinetic and potential energy effects, determine: (a) the net power developed, in kW. (b) the percent thermal efficiency. (c) the back work ratio.
