Assuming that there are no significant changes in potential or kinetic energy. Determine the power consumed by the compressor using an assumption of constant specific of the equation.

An insulated air compressor receives 3 ft3/sec of air from the surrounding at 14.7 psi and 75°C. The air exits the compressor at 75 psi and 420°F.

A two-part compressor operates with steady state conditions. The exit of the first part of the compressor is also the inlet of the second part of the compressor. In the first part of the compressor, air is compressed from 1.5 bar, 350 K to 5.5 bar with a mass flow rate of 7.2 kg/sec. In the second part of the compressor, air is compressed from 5.5 bar to 9.5 bar with a mass flow rate of 5.8 kg/sec. Each unit...
