Problem 6CGP
An air compressor has a significant heat transfer out (review Example 7.4 to see how high Tbecomes if no heat transfer occurs). Is that good or should it be insulated?
Example 7.4
An air compressor in a gas station (see Fig. 7.4) takes in a flow of ambient air at 100 kPa, 290 K and compresses it to 1000 kPa in a reversible adiabatic process. We want to know the specific work required and the exit air temperature.
