Hi PF!
I'm modeling a system using EES in which compression of water occurs from approximately 2 bar to 200 bar.
During the compression, the temperature rises from 300K to 305K. There's no heat transfer and the pump works as an ideal machine.
I remember my thermo professor saying that water is only virtually incompressible and as a gas it will during compression experience a slight change in temperature.
I would say that 5 degrees K is a tad more than a slight increase. But not an increase that seems way out of left field.
Any knowledge on how big an increase can be expected at this pressure increase? Litterature or articles on the matter would also be deeply appreciated.
Thank you
