Air as an ideal gas flows through the compressor and heat exchanger shown in the figure. A separate liquid stream also flows through the heat exchanger. The data given are for operation at steady state. Stray heat transfer to the surroundings can be neglected, as can all kinetic and potential energy changes. Determine the compressor power, in kW, and the mass flow rate of the cooling water, in kg/s.
