Indicated Power for Single-acting Compressor Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Indicated Power in Compressor = (Work Done during Polytropic Compression*Speed in RPM)/60
P_Indicated = (W_Polytropic*N)/60
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Indicated Power in Compressor - (Measured in Watt) - Indicated Power in Compressor is the power required by a compressor to compress air or gas to a desired pressure and volume.
Work Done during Polytropic Compression - (Measured in Joule) - Work Done during Polytropic Compression is the energy transferred during the compression of a gas in a polytropic process, requiring a specific power input.
Speed in RPM - Speed in RPM is the rate of rotation of an object per minute, used to calculate the power required for a specific application or process.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Work Done during Polytropic Compression: 8 Joule --> 8 Joule No Conversion Required
Speed in RPM: 58.5 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P_Indicated = (W_Polytropic*N)/60 --> (8*58.5)/60

Evaluating ... ...

P_Indicated = 7.8

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

7.8 Watt --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

7.8 Watt <-- Indicated Power in Compressor
