Answer to Question #122253 in Molecular Physics | Thermodynamics for Iqra Ranjha

Question

in an air compressor the compression takes place at a constant interval energy and 50 kj of heat and rejected to the colling water for every kilogram of air. calculate the work input for the compression stoke per kilogram of air

Answer 1

Solution;

The work input is calculated by;

W =$\Delta$U +Q

The compression takes place at a constant internal energy;

ΔU =0

W=Q=50 kj

The answer is 50 kj
