Which inefficiency arises in a Brayton cycle gas turbine?

💡 Explanation

Isentropic compression heats incoming air due to adiabatic processes, therefore elevated input temperature reduces the overall thermal efficiency because less combustion occurs for the same energy output, rather than pressure losses from friction, which impacts efficiency differently.
