Air at a pressure of 1bar and a temperature of 300K (Kelvin), which can be modeled as an ideal gas; It is passed through the compressor and compressed to a pressure of 5bar and a temperature of 500K. During this process, which is carried out continuously (steady state), 150kW power is transferred to the compressor. In addition, 20kW of heat energy is transferred from the compressor to the cooling liquid. Calculate the mass flow, ignoring the kinetic and potential energy changes
