NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part. An adiabatic air compressor compresses 9.2 L/s of air at 120 kPa and 20C to 1000 kPa and 300C. The constant pressure specific heat of air at the average temperature of 160C = 433 K is cp= 1.018 kJ/kg-K. The gas constant of air is R=0.287 kPa m3/kg-K. 1 MPa 30090 Compressor 1 120 kPa VUS Determine the work required by the compressor. (You must provide an answer before moving on to the next part.) The work required by the compressor is KJ/kg. Determine the power reauired to drive the air compressor in kW
