7.35. Methane is compressed adiabatically in a
pipeline pumping station from 3500 kPa
and 35°C to 5500 kPa at a rate of 1.5 kg mol⋅s−1. If the compressor
efficiency is
0.78, what is the power requirement of the compressor and what is
the discharge
temperature of the methane?
using definition of compressor efficiency and adibatic work we can find the power and discharge temperature of methane.
For any calrification on solution please write in comments

Nitrogen gas is compressed adiabatically in a steady-flow, steady-state process from 0.1 MPa and 25oC at a rate of 0.2 kg/s. The air exits the compression at a temperature of 125oC. Assuming cold-air constant properties, use the values found in Table A-2(a) and determine the exit pressure [kPa] by using the polytropic relationship using n=k.
