Air at mass flow rate of 10 kg/s at 1 atm, 300 K (point1) enters an adiabatic compressor and exists at 8 atm, 600 K (point 2). Assume constant specific heat values at the average temperature.
A) Calculate the isentropic work (process 1-2s), the actual work (process 1-2), and the isentropic effiecency for the compressor.
B) Calculate the entropy generation and the irreversibility for this 1-2 process. Assume To= 300k
