In an aircraft cooling system, air enters the compressor at 1 bar and 4°C and is compressed to 3 bar with an isentropic efficiency of 72%. The compressed air is cooled in a heat exchanger at constant pressure to 55°C and expands in an expander to 1 bar with an isentropic efficiency of 78%. The low temperature air absorbs heat load of 3 tonnes of refrigeration at constant pressure before re- entering the compressor. The compressor is driven by the...
