A booster station compresses 50 kg/sec of methane from 14 atm, 285 K to 92 atm in a reversible and isothermal steady state steady-flow manner. Use the general ized fugacity coefficient chart (Item B 37) and calculate the compression work and the heat transfer. Now solve using ideal gas theory and compare answers.
R=518.28
=311389.14J
=311.39kJ
Heat transfer=work
Heat transfer=311.39kJ
