Engineers design a Gas Turbine Power Plant. Since the plant initial cost is too high, therefore engineers think to remove the regenerator from their original design. Then, immediate consequence of the same would be?
A. Compressor work will increase
B. Combustor will require more fuel
C. Turbine will produce more work output per unit of fuel
D. Requirement of Intercooler to compensate for its loss
Answer:A

Explanation: Regenerators act as heat exchangers that heat the air before it enters the combustion chambers through exhaust gas emitting from exhaust cone.
