Consider the turbocharger of an internal combustion engine. The exhaust gases enter the turbine  at 450°C at a rate of 0.02 kg/s and leave at 400°C. Air enters the compressor at 70°C and 95 kPa at a rate of 0.018 kg/s and leaves at 135 kPa. The mechanical efficiency between  the turbine and the compressor is 95 percent (5 percent of turbine work is lost during its transmission to the compressor). Using air properties for the exhaust gases, determine: (a).The turbine power output, compressor power input, air temperature at the compressor exit, (b).The air temperature at the compressor for the case of isentropic process and isentropic efficiency  of the compressor.

Consider the turbocharger of an internal combustion engine. The exhaust gases enter the turbine 
at 450°C at a rate of 0.02 kg/s and leave at 400°C. Air enters the compressor at
70°C and 95 kPa at a rate of 0.018 kg/s and leaves at 135 kPa. The mechanical efficiency between 
the turbine and the compressor is 95 percent (5 percent of turbine work is lost during
its transmission to the compressor). Using air properties for the exhaust gases, determine:
(a).The turbine power output, compressor power input, air temperature at the compressor exit,
(b).The air temperature at the compressor for the case of isentropic process and isentropic efficiency 
of the compressor.
