Air enters a two-stage compressor at 1 atm and 27c and is compressed to 15 atm such

that the pressure ratio across the first stage is 5. the steady mass flow rate is 0.2 kg/s.

between the two stages, the air is cooled at constant pressure to 57c. assume that the

compression process is isentropic. illustrate the process on p ? v and t ? s diagrams.

a) determine the power input to the compressor.

b) determine the rate of heat rejection during the cooling process and calculate the

associated rate of entropy change.

c) how much compressor power would be required for a single stage compression to 15

atm?

d) how much compressor power would be required if the single stage compression to 15

atm occured isothermally?

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.
