Air enters the compressor of a gas turbine plant at ambient conditions of 100 kPa and 25°C with a low velocity and exits at 1 MPa and 347°C with a velocity of 90m/s. The compressor is cooled at a rate of 1500 kJ/min, and the power input to the compressor is 250 kW. Determine the mass flow rate of the air through the compressor. Consider that the enthalpy values for air obtained from tables with the corresponding temperatures are:
