Which outcome occurs when an ideal closed Brayton cycle operates far from equilibrium?

💡 Explanation

Output declines when the Brayton cycle operates irreversibly because internal irreversibilities reduce efficiency. Specifically entropy generation via friction dominates, therefore less work is extracted, rather than achieving ideal efficiency.
