Air enters an adiabatic compressor at (100 mathrm{kPa}) and (300 mathrm{~K}) at a rate of (0.5 mathrm{~m}^{3}

Question:

Air enters an adiabatic compressor at \(100 \mathrm{kPa}\) and \(300 \mathrm{~K}\) at a rate of \(0.5 \mathrm{~m}^{3} / \mathrm{s}\) and leaves at \(600 \mathrm{kPa}\). Air is assumed to behave as an ideal gas. Determine the work of compression per unit mass for

(a) Reversible adiabatic compression when \(\gamma=1.4\)

(b) Isothermal compression

(c) Single-stage compression. Take \(\gamma=1.3\).
