Is mechanical-power requirement per mole of air nonadiabatic


Air is compressed in a steady-flow compressor, entering at 1.2 bar and 300 K and leaving at 5 bar and 500 K. Operation is nonadiabatic, with heat transfer to the surroundings at 295 K. For the same change in state of the air, is the mechanical-power requirement per mole of air greater or less for nonadiabatic than for adiabatic operation? Why?
