Air enters a compressor at 100 kPa and 70°C at a rate of 3 kg/min. It leaves at 300 kPa and 150°C. Being as the compressor is not well insulated heat transfer takes place. The compressor consumes 6 kW of work. If the surroundings have a temperature of 20°C. Calculate: a. The entropy change of air b. The entropy change of the surroundings c. The entropy generated Use ?? = 5/2 ?
