Estimate the rate of heat transfer from the compressor

Reference no: EM13304726

50 kmol per hour of air is compressed from p1 = 1.2 bar to P2 = 6.0 bar in a steady-flow compressor. Delivered mechanical power is 98.8KW. Temperature and velocities are: T1= 300K T2= 520K u1= 10m s^-1 u2= 3.5m s^-1 Estimate the rate of heat transfer from the compressor. Assume for air that Cp = 7/2 R and that enthalpy is independent of pressure.
