A two-stage reciprocating air compressor takes air at 1 bar and 273k. This air is then delivered at 13 bar, it has an ideal intermediate pressure and inter-cooling is perfect. With a rate of discharge of 9kg/min and the law of compression is PV^1.35 = C. Find the volumetric efficiency of gamma: y = 4 percent. Also find the power required to run the compressor.
