a) Air initially at 30∘C and 110kPa is compressed steadily in a compressor with volume flow rate of 150 L/s to 350∘C and 1.5MPa. A heat loss of 40 kJ/kg occurs during the compression process. If the changes in kinetic and potential energies are negligible, i) sketch the schematic diagram for the system, ii) determine the mass flow rate of the air, kg/s, iii) determine the volume flow rate of the air at the outlet, m3/s, iv) determine the power consumed by the compressor, kW and v) determine the saving in power consumption if the compressor is adiabatic, kW. Assume air as an ideal gas with gas constant, R=0.287 kJ/kgK and average specific heat, Cp=1.022 kJ/kg⋅K
