Propulsion • Thermodynamic Cycles of Gas Turbines • Brayton Cycle with Real Component Efficiencies
In an ideal Brayton cycle, heat addition and heat rejection occur during which thermodynamic processes?
(A) Isobaric (constant pressure) processes
(B) Isochoric (constant volume) processes
(C) Isothermal (constant temperature) processes
(D) Isentropic processes
Answer Key:
A
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
### Solution: The ideal Brayton cycle consists of two isentropic processes (compression and expansion) and two isobaric processes (combustor heat addition and exhaust heat rejection). Correct: A.
