Question: A steady flow compressor handles 1 3 3 m 3 * m - 1 of nitrogen ) measured at intake, where P 1 = 9

A steady flow compressor handles 133m3*m-1 of nitrogen ) measured at intake, where P1=97kPa and T1=27C. Air discharges to the atmosphere at 311kPa at the end of compression. The changes in kinetic and potential energies are negligible. For each of the following cases, determine the final temperature and work if the process is:
a)PVr= constant (adiabatic)
b) PV = constant (isothermal)
(In this problem, air inside the cylinder compressed from 97kPa to 311kPa. Compression process, starting from the lower pressure to the state just prior to release, can be considered as the process takes place in a closed system.)
