the compressor and expander have to be assumed to have an actual efficiency that is less than ideal. Suppose the air cooled to room temperature before expanding it. Considering that the adiabatic efficiency of the compressor is 78% and the efficiency of the expander (a turbine) is 82%, how efficient will the system be as an energy store?
An ideal compressor pressurizes air at 100 kPa and 300 K to 1000 kPa. If the compressor has a mass flow rate of 0.042 kg/s, assuming variable specific heats what is the final temperature of the air leaving the compressor and how much power does the compressor use?
Air at the rate of 25 kg/min is
compressed in a centrifugal compressor
from 1 bar to 2 bar. The temperature
increases from 15°C to 105°C during
compression. Determine actual and
minimum power required to run the
compressor. The surrounding air
temperature is 15°C. Neglect the changes
in K.E. and P.E.
