A compressor must transport low-pressure saturated steam from a boiler at 4 bar to the top of a steam-stripping column at a water purification facility. The steam transportation pipes in this system are all 2.5" internal diameter. The column feed requirement is 15 m/min steam at 1 bar and 150 C. The compressor is located 3 ft above the boiler and the top of the stripping column is 25 ft above the compressor. a) Is the column inlet steam saturated? Justify your response. b) Determine the compressor power requirement for this application (kW). c) If the compressor is 74% efficient, the power drawn by the compressor is more than the power delivered to the fluid. Does this mean that the principle of conservation of energy is violated? Explain your response.
