4. Helium gas is to be compressed continuously in an adiabatic compressor from initial conditions of 0.1 MPa and 293 K to a final pressure of 0.5 MPa. If it is assumed that the compressor will operate with an efficiency of 75% compared with isentropic compression, what will be the final temperature of the helium? Helium may be considered an ideal gas for which Cp= 20.88 J/mol-K. (20 points) !3! 4.
