Heat Added in Gas Turbine Combustion Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Heat Added = Enthalpy after Combustion-Enthalpy before Combustion
Q = h3-h2
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Heat Added - (Measured in Joule) - Heat added is the amount of heat added to a system.
Enthalpy after Combustion - (Measured in Joule) - Enthalpy after combustion is the increase in the enthalpy of fluid after adding heat.
Enthalpy before Combustion - (Measured in Joule) - Enthalpy before Combustion is the amount of energy contained by fluid after compression.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Enthalpy after Combustion: 1700 Kilojoule --> 1700000 Joule (Check conversion here)
Enthalpy before Combustion: 310 Kilojoule --> 310000 Joule (Check conversion here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Q = h3-h2 --> 1700000-310000
Evaluating ... ...
Q = 1390000
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
1390000 Joule -->1390 Kilojoule (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
1390 Kilojoule <-- Heat Added
(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)
