Air is compressed by an adiabatic compressor from 95 kPa and 27°C to 600 kPa
and 277°C. Assuming variable specific heats and neglecting the changes in
kinetic and potential energies, determine
(a) The isentropic efficiency of the compressor and
(b) The exit temperature of air if the process were reversible.
Following information is given:
Initial pressure of air P1 = 95 kPa
Initial temperature of air T1 = 27⁰C = 300 K
Final pressure of air P2 = 600 kPa
Final temperature of air T2 = 277⁰C = 550...
