Air enters a compressor operating at steady state at 14 lbf/in2, 60°F, with a volumetric flow rate of 5600 ft3/min. The compression occurs in two stages, with each stage being a polytropic process with n = 1.27. The air is cooled to 80°F between the stages by an intercooler operating at 45 lbf/in2. Air exits the compressor at 150 lbf/in2. 1. Determine the magnitude of the total power required by the compressor, in Btu/min. 2. Determine the magnitude of the total heat transfer rate for both compressor stages, in Btu/min. 3. Determine the magnitude of the heat transfer rate from the intercooler, in Btu/min.
