An ideal gas mixture of CH4 and O2 enters an insulated compressor at 5 ft3/s, 70°F, and 14.7 psia. The mixture exits the compressor at 125 psia. The isentropic efficiency of the compressor is 0.82. Assuming the mixture has constant specific heats, plot the exit temperature and power consumed for (a) O2 mass fractions ranging from 0 to 1, and (b) O2 mole fractions ranging from 0 to 1.
