4.50 Air is compressed at steady state from 1 bara, 300 K, to 6 bara with a mass flow rate of 4 kg/s. Each unit of mass passing from inlet to exit undergoes a process described by pvⁿ = constant, where n = 1.2677. Heat transfer occurs at a rate of 47.009 kJ per kg of air flowing to cooling water circulating in a water jacket enclosing the compressor. Kinetic and potential energy changes of the air from inlet to exit may be assumed negligible. (a) Write the symbolic equation for calculating the shaft power, Ẇ, in terms of given information only. Simplify. (b) calculate the compressor power, in kW.

Air, modeled as an ideal gas, is compressed at steady state from 1 bar, 300 K, to 5 bar, 500 K, with 190 kW of power input. Heat transfer occurs at a rate of 25.33 kW from the air to cooling water circulating in a water jacket enclosing the compressor. Neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the mass flow rate of the air, in kg/s.

Air expands through a turbine from 8 bar, 960 K to 1 bar, 450 K. The inlet velocity is small compared to the exit velocity of 90 m/s. The turbine operates at steady state and develops a power output of 2500 kW. Heat transfer between the turbine and its surroundings and potential energy effects are negligible. Modeling air as an ideal gas, calculate the mass flow rate of air, in kg/s, and the exit area, in m2.
