Homework Statement
Compare the compressor work input required to compress water isentropically from 100kpa to 1MPa, assuming that the water exists as (a) saturated liquid and (b) saturated vapor at the inlet state
Homework Equations
Win = v(P2-P1) Win = (h2- h1)
The Attempt at a Solution
Thought I got this question completely right in the moment.. got most of it wrong actually. I'm confused on why i got it wrong. Here was my thought process:
(1) compressor has no heat input therefore, W(in) = change in internal energy = (h2-h1)
