A gas flows steadily through a rotary compressor at a temperature of 16 ⁰C, a pressure of 100kPa, and an enthalpy of 392.2 kJkg-1. The gas leaves the compressor at a temperature of 245⁰C, a pressure of 0.6 MPa and an enthalpy of 534.5 kJkg-1. There is no heat transfer to or fromthe gas as it flows through the compressor.
