Nitrogen (N2) at 1 bar, 300 K enters a compressoroperating at steady state and is compressed adiabatically to anexit state of 16 bar, 750 K. The N2 is modeled as anideal gas and kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible.Determine the work input, in kJ per kg of N2 flowing,the rate of entropy production, in kJ/K per kg of N2flowing, and the isentropic compressor efficiency.
