Steam enters an adiabatic compressor at 100 kPa and 125°C, ejecting at 1000 kPa and 565°C. What is the fractional isentropic efficiency of this compressor? (if your answer is 23%, enter the value 0.23)

Draw and label 2 diagrams: your real compressor and your "fake" compressor, and remember that the two share in common identical feed streams but only the pressure in the exiting stream.
