$5-56$ Carbon dioxide enters an adiabatic compressor at

$100$ kPa and $300$ K at a rate of $0\mathrm{.}5k\frac{g}{s}$ and leaves at $600$ kPa

and $450$ K $.$ Neglecting kinetic energy changes, determine $($a$)$ the

volume flow rate of the carbon dioxide at the compressor inlet

and $($b$)$ the power input to the compressor. Answers: $($a$)0\mathrm{.}283\frac{m^3}{s},$

$($b$)68\mathrm{.}8$ kW
