Question

Assuming the clearance is negligible for a single stage compressor with the following
data.
Atmospheric pressure: 90 kPa
Atmospheric temperature: 17 ˚C
Delivery pressure: 7 bar
Free air delivery flow rate: 0.2 m3/min
Take “n” as 1.3, cp = 1.005 kJ/kg K, cv = 0.718 kJ/kg K

Calculatate the following

1 )Evaluate the mass flow rate of air inside the compressor operating isentropically in kg/min to 3 decimal places.

2 ) What is the power input to the compressor in kW to 3 decimal places if the compression reversible isothermal?

3 ) What is the power input to the compressor in kW to 2 decimal places if the compression is polytropic compression process with n=1.25?
