I am having trouble calculating the work done by compressor. I basically have temperature (degree Celsius) and pressure (bara) data at the suction and discharge of the compressor which is obtained by doing the experiment. Average suction temp and pressure is 40 deg Celsius and 1 bara. Average discharge temp and pressure is 60 degree Celsius and 12 bara. When I use the thermodynamics table to get the enthalpies and find the work done by compressor my result is close to one or negative. Kindly help me to figure out what I am doing wrong.
