It is common knowledge that the temperature rises as it is compressed. An inventor thought about using this high temperature air to heat buildings. He used a compressor driven by an electric motor. The inventor claims that the compressed hot air system is 25% more efficient than a resistance heating system that provides an equivalent amount of heating. Is this claim valid, or is this just another perpetual motion machine?

Termodynamic question I NEED ANSWER RARIDLY PLEASE!!! Water vapor enters the steam turbine at 4000 kPa pressure, 500 ° C temperature and 6 m3 / h volume flow, shown in the figure below. 0.2 times the mass flow rate of the incoming water comes out of the outlet no. 2 with 500 kPa pressure and 200 ° C temperature. 0.8 times the mass flow rate of the water comes out of the outlet no.3 with 30 kPa pressure and 0.85 dryness degree. Since the heat transfer from the turbine to the environment is 5000 kW, Find the mass flow rate of the incoming water. Find the volume flow of water at outlet no. 3. Find the power (kW) produced by the turbine. (Changes in kinetic and potential energies are negligible)
