A rotary air compressor takes in air (which may be treated as a perfect gas) at a pressure
of 1 bar and a temperature of 20°C and compress it adiabatically to a pressure of 6 bar. The
isentropic efficiency of the processes is 0.85 and changes in kinetic and potential energy may
be neglected. Calculate the specific entropy change of the air. Take R = 0.287 kJ/kg K and
C = 1.006 kJ/kg K.
