9-182 In an ideal Brayton cycle with regeneration, air is compressed from 80 kPa and 10°C to 400 kPa and 175°C, is heated to 450°C in the regenerator, and then further heated to 1000°C before entering the turbine. Under cold-air-standard conditions, the effectiveness of the regenerator is
a) 33 percent
b) 44 percent
c) 62 percent
d) 77 percent
e) 89 percent
