What is the exit temperature due to ideal gas behavior


An air compressor is powered by a 2hp motor (assume this is all input to the compressor). The inlet pressure and temperature is 100 kPa and 25OC respectively. For every kg of air that passes through the compressor, 300 kJ of heat transfer takes place to the outside world. If the exit pressure is 200 kPa, and the inlet volumetric flow rate is 100 L/min, then what is the exit temperature? You may assume ideal gas behavior, and neglect changes in kinetic and potential energy.
