The air at the inlet to the compressor currently has an average temperature of 24°C and the temperature outside the building that houses the compressor averages 15.0°C. Rerouting ducting to the inlet of the compressor will cost $500. Pline Wcomp = kRTin (k-1)ncomp [()* - ¹] Pin Determine the energy savings from ducting exterior air to the compressor. Base your calculations on a 300 hp compressor run by a motor with 90% efficiency, with an original runtime of 4500 hours (remember that total mass generated stays the same).
