Answer
Correct Answer: 1000°C
Explanation
Concept/ApproachClassical gas-turbine practice cites turbine inlet temperatures on the order of about 1000°C (and higher in modern engines with advanced cooling/materials). The lower listed values are far below practical TIT for efficient operation.
Final Answer1000°C.
