A steady flow of air at the rate M? will enter a steady-state device at T 1

Question:

A steady flow of air at the rate M? will enter a steady-state device at T1, P1 and emerge at T2, P2. The device requires shaft power W? and is cooled by heat transfer at the rate Q?0 to the environment at T0.

The specifications are that T1?= T2 = T0 and P2 > P1.Starting from basic principles, and using the ideal gas equations of state, derive an expression for the minimum W? required by this device, in terms of M?, T0, the pressure ratio ?P?= P2/P1, and constants for the gas.
