Determine for the compressor the isentropic compressor


Saturated water vapor at 300 degrees F enters a compressor operating at steady state with a mass flow rate of 5 lb/s and is compressed adiabatically to 800 lbf/in^2. If the power input is 2150 hp, determine for the compressor (a) the isentropic compressor efficiency and (b) the rate of entropy production, in hp/degrees R. Ignore kinetic and potential energry effects.
