Question: Air enters a compressor with a pressure of 14.7 lbf/in.2, a temperature of 70°F, and a volumetric flow rate of 40 ft3/s. Air exits the compressor at 50 lbf/in.2 and 190°F. Heat transfer from the compressor to its surroundings occurs at a rate of 20.5 Btu per lb of air flowing. Determine the compressor power, in hp, for steady-state operation.
