7.35. Methane is compressed adiabatically in a pipeline pumping station from 3500 kPa and 35°C to 5500 kPa at a rate of 1.5 kg mol⋅s−1. If the compressor efficiency is 0.78, what is the power requirement of the compressor and what is the discharge temperature of the methane?
A monatomic ideal gas at an initial temperature of 390 K is compressed adiabatically from an initial volume of 120 L to a final volume of 40.0 L. What is the final temperature of the gas?
Air is compressed steadily and adiabatically from 17 C and 97 kPa to 276 C and 604 kPa. Assuming constant specific heats for air at room temperature, what is the isentropic efficiency of the compressor?
One mole of ideal gas initially at 27 degree C is compressed adiabatically from 6 dm^3 to 3 dm^3 against constant external pressure of 15 atm. Calculate Delta E, Delta H, Q, and W for this process.
In an engine, an almost ideal gas is compressed adiabatically (see Note below) to half its volume. In doing so, 2630 Joules of work is done on the gas. (a) How much heat flows into or out of the gas? (b) What is the change in internal energy of the gas? (c) Does its temperature rise or fall? Note: An adiabatic process is one that occurs without transfer of heat or matter between a thermodynamic system and its surroundings. In...

Two mole of ideal gas, is compressed adiabatically in a piston/cylinder device from 2 bar and 25oC to 7 bar. The process is irreversible and requires 25% more work than a reversible, adiabatic compression from the same initial state to the same final pressure. What is the entropy change of the gas? Assume Cv=(5/2)R in this calculation.
