We know that efficiency of the simple gas turbine is.
(Work of turbine - Work of compressor) /Heat supply.
By intercooling,
The work net increases by decreasing the compressor work and automatically Heat supply is also increasing.
So work net and heat supply both are increasing then we can't comment on efficiency.

Answer is not correct.
Inter-cooling doesn't increases the efficiency because on intercooling temp of air at combustion chamber decreases than normal brayton cycle so heat needs to be supply more in combustion but intercooling increases output as Wc decreases.

Answer is not correct.
Efficiency decreases because with inter-cooling exit temperature of air decreases, so more heat is required to maintain the maximum temperature. Net output of system increases.

The answer is correct B efficiency Increase when coupled with regenerator or else it decreases due to work supplied in both.

Inter cooling only increases the net work output due to reduction in compressor work but decreases the efficiency.

Answer is D since the output is increased in intercooler therefore thermal efficiency increases.
