Interpretation
For the given conditions i.e. adiabatic ideal gas, the discharge stream temperature and power required of the compressor is to be found out for any one of the set of operating conditions ( in this case (a)).
Concept Introduction:
Assume ideal gas for given conditions,
Consider operating conditions (a)
Where,
Cp = Molar heat capacity
R = Universal Gas Constant
T0= Initial given temperature = 25oC = 298.15K
P0 = Initial given Pressure = 101.33 kPa
P2 = Final Given Pressure = 375 kPa
n = Given Molar flow rate = 100 mol / s
A, B, C, D = Constants for heat capacity of air
A = 3.355
B = 0.575 x 10-3 K-1
C = 0
D = -0.016 x 105K2
W = Power required of the compressor
