(30 points) A compressor uses 2200 kW of work to compress 2.50 kg/s of steam from an initial state of 1.00 bar and 150.0°C to a final pressure of 15.0 bar. Determine the compressor efficiency.
Calculate the real work (in kJ) to compress 1 mol of n-butane from 1.0 bar to 15 bar isothermally at 125oC and compare to the ideal gas equation of state.
An ideal gas is allowed to expand isothermally until it reaches its final volume. It is then heated at constant volume until it reaches its final pressure. The initial state of the gas is P1 = 2.93 atm, V1 = 1.00 L, and Eint 1 = 414 J, and its final state has volume V2 = 2.93 L and Eint 2 = 951 J. 1) Calculate the work done by the gas. Be careful with signs: if the work you...

Then, the gas returns to its initial state, first by constant pressure (isobaric) contraction, and then by a change at constant volume (isochoric) a) Draw a PV diagram of this process. What's the total change in thermal energy of the entire process? b) What's the work done by the environment on the gas?...
