Mechanical Engineering

The gases behave as ideal at low pressure, however, at highpressure they deviate from the ideal behavior. Compare the inputpower required(in kW)for compressing oxygen gas by first assumingideal behavior then the real behavior. Take inlet state at 10 MPa,14°C and the final state after compression is 15 MPa, 127°C. Youcan ignore the effect of gravity and motion of the system.Assumemass flow rate of the gas as 9 kg/min
