2. Influence of cooling on the Joule-Brayton cycle
The aim of this and the following paragraphs is to present a simple model of the system, in terms of both thermodynamics and heat transfer, which will enable us to quantify the impact of temperature rise and cooling on the efficiency of these engines, depending on the different cooling systems used.
2.1 Modification of the basic thermodynamic cycle and simplified modeling
The Joule-Brayton thermodynamic cycle (figure 1 ) is generally used as a reference for calculating gas turbine performance. Indeed, the correspondence between the actual behavior of the plant and this thermodynamic...
