Calculate the efficiency of a hairdryer that has a total power input of 2000W and a useful power output of 1200W.

Air enters a compressor operating at steady state at 1.05 bar, 300 k, with a volumetric flow rate of 93 m3/min and exits at 12 bar, 400 k. heat transfer occurs at a rate of 15.5 kw from the compressor to its surroundings. assuming the ideal gas model for air neglecting kinetic potential energy effects, determine the power in put in kw.
