Homework Statement


Air at 1 bar and 20°C flows steadily at a rate of 2 m^3/min into a compressor. It leaves at a
pressure of 15 bar and 120°C. The heat lost from the compressor is 10% of the work transfer to it.
Find these work and heat transfers, assuming that air behaves as a perfect gas and the velocity at
the inlet and outlet is small.

You don't know where to start? Can you even write down a relevant equation? What are you covering in your Thermodynamics class right now?
