An air compressor has a steady stream of air entering at 100kPa and 300K. Air exits the compressor at 600kPa and 510K. The compressor draws 30 amps at 220 volts, and is compressing the air at a rate of 1.8kg/min. What is the rate at which heat from the compressor is escaping into the room? (Assume negligible velocities and changes in height.) (Solution: Qout=199.2W )
