Specifications.
Turbine inlet = 58 F
Turbine outlet = 37 F
Turbine outlet flow = 85 cfm
Turbine Q (heat extracted) -519 J
Compressor inlet = 70 F
Compressor outlet = 83 F
Compressor psig = 2.18
compressor outlet flow = 106 cfm
Compressor Q (heat added) 404 J
diamond thermal conductivity - 900 - 2320 w/mk
graphene -(4840±440) - (5300±480) w/mk
Assuming these parameters are true, we have followed the 2nd law of thermodynamics. We have a heat reservoir (compressor outlet at 83 F) and a cold sink (turbine outlet at 37 F).
Based off the 2nd law of thermo, if I embed a graphene/diamond heat exchanger system inside the compressor housing and it's connected to the cold sink turbine side, the 13 degree temperature rise from 70 F in the compressor housing should travel to the cold sink turbine.
Therefore, instead of the 13 degree temp rise causing resistance when compressing air, its being used to try to equalize the cold sink turbine.
Here is the question;
1. Will this cause the compressor to have an inlet temperature of 70 f and and outlet temperature of 70 f, making it an isothermal compressor?
