Compressors, Gas Turbines and Jet Engines
If p₁, is the pressure of air entering the L.P. cylinder and p₂ is the pressure of air leaving the L.P. cylinder (or inter-cooler pressure), then the ratio of cylinder diameters for a single acting, two stage reciprocating air compressor with complete intercooling is given by (where D₁ = Dia. of L.P. cylinder, and D₂ = Dia. of H.P. cylinder)

None of these
D₁/D₂ = p₁ p₂
D₁/D₂ = p₂/p₁
D₁/D₂ = p₁/p₂

Pick up the false statement

Exhaust losses in gas turbine are high due to large mass flow rate
Gas turbine is a self starting unit
Gas turbine does not require huge quantity of water like steam plant
Overall efficiency of gas turbine plant is lower than that of a reciprocating engine

The assumption made in two stage compression with inter-cooler is that

The suction and delivery of air takes place at constant pressure
There is no pressure drop in the inter-cooler
All of the listed here
The compression in both the cylinders is polytropic
