Air is compressed in steady flow from 1 bar to 2.3 bars. The volumetric flow rate at the entrance is 300 m^3/min. Heat is removed at the rate of 1700 kJ/min. If the temperature of the air at the inlet is 17 C, the exit temperature is 137 C, and the exit area is 200 cm^2, determine the power required (kW) if the inlet velocity is neglected.
