Question

Water is compressed adiabatically, but inefficiently, from p1 = 150 kPa and T1 = 160 ∘C to a pressure
of p2 = 700 kPa. A throttle valve is connected to the outlet of the compressor and has a temperature reading at
its outlet of T3 = 440 ∘C at atmospheric pressure (1 bar). If the compressor operates at steady state, stray heat
transfer can be neglected, and the changes in kinetic and potential energy are negligible, determine the isentropic
efficiency of the compressor, in percent.
