Air is compressed in an adiabatic compressor. Inlet and outlet conditions are 120kPa, 30 ^oC and 20 m/s; 1.4 MPa, 530 ^oC and 80 m/s. The surrounding air temperature is 25 ^oC. The inlet cross-sectional area is 0.013 m². Assume C_p = 1005 J/kgK, R = 287 J/kgK, k = 1.4.

Enter the amount of heat loss due to irreversibility resulting from the heat transfer from the compressor in kW (correct up to one decimal place.)
