    NAME ____________________

    ANSWER COMPLETELY. INCOMPLETE SOLUTIONS WILL BE MARKED WRONG. BOX YOUR FINAL
    ANSWERS.

    1. An air compressor takes air at 99 kPa and compresses it isentropically at 700 kpa. If the volume flow
    at discharge is 2 m3/sec, determine the capacity of air in cfm.
    2. The discharge pressure of an air compressor is 5 times the suction pressure. If the volume flow at
    suction is 0.5 m3/s, what is the compressor power using PV1.38 = C and the suction pressure is 100
    kPa.
    3. A 12-hp motor is used to drive an air compressor. The compressor efficiency is 70%. Find the mass
    of air needed per minute if air is available at 30oC. The pressure compresses to 6 times the initial
    pressure.
    4. The initial condition of air in an air compressor is 98 kpa and 27oC and discharges at 500 kpa. The
    bore and stroke are 360 mm and 380 mm, respectively with percent clearance of 7% running at 300
    rpm. Find the mass flow of air at suction.
    5. A 4-stage air compressor compresses air from 100 kPa to 700 kpa. Find the intercooler pressure between the
    2nd and 3rd stages.
    6. A two stage air compressor has a suction volume of 700 m^3/hr at 100 kpa and 22oC discharges to 690 kpa,
    determine the heat rejected in intercooler.

    7. A single-acting compressor with a 15 cm bore and 18 cm stroke operates at 350 rpm. The clearance is 5% and
    it receives air at 100 kPa and discharges it at 650 kPa. The compression is polytropic with n= 1.35. Determine
    the power required in KW.

    A. 2050 B. 3820 C. 1061 D. 1503
    9. Calculate the compressor work in kJ required to compress 1 kg of an ideal gas from an initial volume and
    pressure of 0.65 m^3 and 101.3 kPa to a final pressure of 517 kPa. Compression is with n = 1.35.
    A. 133.6 B. 105.8 C. 148.3 D. 142.7
    10. A 3-stages air compressor compresses air from 100 kpa to 700 kpa. Find the intercooler pressure between the
    2nd and 3rd stage.
    A. 365.88 kpa B. 375.88 kpa C. 385.88 kpa D. 395.88 kpa
