### Understanding the Adiabatic Compressor of a Refrigeration System
**Problem Statement:**
An adiabatic compressor of an R-134a refrigeration system compresses saturated vapor from 160 kPa to 800 kPa. We need to determine the minimum power required by this compressor when its mass flow rate is 0.1 kg/s. Assume a temperature of 50°C.
**Diagram Explanation:**
- **State 1:**
- **Pressure:** 160 kPa
- **Condition:** Saturated vapor
- **State 2:**
- **Pressure:** 800 kPa
- **Temperature:** 50°C
**Mass Flow Rate:**
- 0.1 kg/s
The sketch on the right illustrates the compressor system moving from State 1 to State 2, showing the change in pressure and flow.
**Objective:**
Calculate the minimum power required given the conditions and changes in the system. Consider that the process is adiabatic, meaning no heat is transferred to or from the system.
