Question

(a) Explain Throttling process as an application of steady flow energy equation.

(b) $5\text{ kg}$ of air is compressed in a reversible steady flow polytropic process from $100\text{ kPa}$ and $40^\circ\text{C}$ to $1000\text{ kPa}$ following the process given by :

$PV^{1.25} = C$

Determine :

(a) Total shaft work

(b) Heat transferred.
