Question:

A compressor operates adiahatically with air entering at T and P\ with a molar flow rate A, The discharge pressure is F? and the compressor efficiency is >?. Estimate the power requirement of the compressor and the temperature of the discharge stream for one of the follow ing sets of operating conditions.
(a) T1 = 25oC. P1 = 101.33 kPa, n = 100 mol s-1, P2 = 375 kPa, ή = 0.75.
(b) T1 = 90oC, P1 = 375 kPfc, n = 100 mol s-1 P2= \, 000 kPa. ή = 0 70.
(c) T1 = 30oC. P1 = 100 kPa, n = 150 mol s-1 P2= 500 kPa. ή = 0.80.
(d) T1 = 100oC. P1 = 500 kPa. n = 50 mol s-1. P2 = 1300 kPa. ή = 0.75.
(e) T1 = 80(oF). P1 = I4.7 (psia). n = 0"5(lb mol)(s)-1, P2 = 55(psia). ή = 0,75.
(f) T1 = I50(oF), P1 = 55(psia) n = 0.5(lb mol)(s)-1, P2 = I35(psia). ή = 0.70.
