Air (??=29 kg/kmol) at 115.00 kPa and 285.00 K is compressed steadily to 600.0 kPa. The mass flow rate of the air is 2.00 kg/s and a heat loss of 32.1 kW occurs during the process. You may assume that changes in kinetic and potential energy are negligible, the temperature of the surroundings is 25 ∘C, and that the CP of air is 3.5 R. Given the compressor operates with a second law (reversible) efficiency of 0.60, calculate the following. What is the actual work interaction term? What is the actual exit temperature of the air?

Entropy

In physics, entropy means the amount of disorder or the degree of randomness associated with a thermodynamic system. The system is not self-organized when the entropy of the system is high. For instance, when a system is at an elevated temperature, its molecules are in random motion, vibrating and colliding with each other. During this scenario, the probability of finding a molecule at a particular place twice, is low. Under this circumstance, the system can be said to be in a high entropy.
