Power Plant: Brayton Cycle, L-1

Thermodynamics is the heart of mechanical engineering, some students finds it easy and for some it is the toughest subject. However, in every competitive examination thermodynamics cover almost 20 to 30 percentage of the questions. Power Plant is a sub part of thermodynamics. In post graduation power plant is a separate branch to study. But even at graduation level it cover some major topics like Rankine Cycle, Brayton Cycle. etc. Even at interview point of view it has a great importance,  almost 58 percentage power production in India is by thermal power stations so it also make sense if a mechanical student is asked for power plant question in the interview.

Here in this lesson I have covered the basic brayton cycle, their types and differences.
