Which limit emerges when a closed-cycle turbine experiences irreversible adiabatic compression?

💡 Explanation

Decreased turbine power output occurs because **entropy generation** within irreversible adiabatic compression reduces the Carnot cycle’s work extraction. Therefore, less work is produced rather than maintaining frequency or material yielding, different performance factors.
