FIGURE 6 (a) Effect of turbine inlet on cycle performance; (b)
effect of regenerator effectiveness; (c) effect of compressor inlet-air
temperature; (d) effect of inlet-air temperature on turbine-cycle capacity.

These curves are based on a turbine and compressor efficiency of 85
percent, a regenerator effectiveness of 70 percent, and a 1500°F
(815.6°C) inlet-gas temperature.
