• η for ideal cycle is clear. Open cycle with internal combustion express
the performance in terms of fuel consumption per unit net work
output, Specific Fuel Consumption (SFC).

• Losses due to friction & turbulence occurs throughout the whole plant.
1. Air side intercooler loss
2. Air side heat exchanger loss
3. Combustion chamber loss (both main and reheat)
4. Gas side heat exchanger loss
5. Duct losses between components and at intake and exhaust
• The pressure losses have the effect of decreasing rt relative to rc
• Similarly for a turbine 𝜂𝑡 > 𝜂𝑠. Frictional ‘reheating’ in one stage is partially
recovered as work in the next.
