Common data for Questions 50 and 51:
In a gas turbine plant, air is compressed through a pressure ratio of 6:1 from 15C. It is then heated to maximum
permissible temperature of 750C and expanded in two stages each of expansion ratio 6, the air
being reheated between the stages to 750C. A heat exchanger allows the heating of compressed gases
through 75% of the maximum range possible. Given compressor
