(Solved): An adiabatic air compressor compresses 10L/s of air at 120kPa and 20C to 1000kPa and 300C. ...

An adiabatic air compressor compresses $10\mathrm{L}/\mathrm{s}$ of air at $120\mathrm{kPa}$ and $20^{?}\mathrm{C}$ to $1000\mathrm{kPa}$ and $300^{?}\mathrm{C}$. The constant pressure specific heat of air at the average temperature of $160^{?}\mathrm{C}=433\mathrm{K}$ is $CP$ $=1.018\mathrm{kJ}/\mathrm{kg}?\mathrm{K}$. The gas constant of air is $R=0.287\mathrm{kPa}?{\mathrm{m}}^3/\mathrm{kg}?\mathrm{K}$. Determine the power required to drive the air compressor in $\mathrm{kW}$. The power required to drive the air compressor is $\mathrm{kW}$.
