One mole of CO2 is to be compressed adiabatically from 1 bar and 25 C. Because of irreversibilities and poor design of the compressor the compressor work required is found to be 25 %greater than that for a well-designed (reversible) compressor.
Compute the outlet temperature of the CO2 and the work that must be supplied to the compressor for both the reversible and irreversible compressor for the following cases:
CO2 is an ideal gas with a constant pressure heat capacity of 37.151 J/molk
CO2 is an ideal gas with constant pressure heat capacity given in thermodynamic
