Nitrogen is steadily compressed from 112 kPa and 12 C to 571 kPa and 226 C. It is estimated that 20.3 kJ/kg of heat is exchanged with the surrounding air while maintained at a constant 25C during the process. Determine the entropy generated during this process in kJ/kg/K.

The temperature of air decreases as it is compressed by an adiabatic compressor. a)- true b)- false

Ajournal bearing has a journal diameter of 3.250 in with a unilateral tolerance of 20.003 in. the bushing bore has a diameter of 3.256 in and a unilateral tolerance of 0.004 in. the bushing is 2.8 in long and supports a 700-lbf load. the journal speed is 900 rev/min. find the minimum oil film thickness and the maximum film pressure for both sae 20 and sae 20w-30 lubricants, for the tightest assembly if the operating film temperature is 160°f. a computer code is appropriate for solving this problem.
