A reciprocating compressor is a device that compresses air by a back-and-forth straight-line motion, like a piston in a cylinder. Consider a reciprocating compressor running at 110 rpm . During a compression stroke, 1.70 mol of air is compressed. The initial temperature of the air is 390 K, the engine of the compressor is supplying 7.5 kW of power to compress the air, and heat is being removed at the rate of 1.3 kW .

Calculate the temperature change per compression stroke

Explanation:

given,

moles of air compressed, n = 1.70 mol

initial temperature, T₁ = 390 K

Power supply by the compressor, P = 7.5 kW

Heat removed = 1.3 kW

Angular frequency of the compressor, f = 110 rpm = 110/60 = 1.833 rps.

Time of compression = time of the hay revolution

             =

             =

             =

             =0.273 s

Using first law of thermodynamics

U = Q - W

now,

Power supplied = 7.5 kW

heat removed = 1.3 kW

now,

we know,

 C_v for air = 5 cal/° mol

                   = 5 x 4.186 J/mol°C  = 20.93 J/mol°C

now,

the temperature change per compression stroke is equal to 47.57°C.

whichever one it is, it's definitely not one that you included on the list you provided.

hi i’m sorry to call us today so we will get back with y’all and we will have to do it haha omg was the day
