During a compression process, 35 (kg/min) of R-134a at 0.6 (bar) and 0 (°C) is continuously sent through a pipe system with an internal diameter of 3 (in.). The discharge pressure is 0.5 (MPa) and 30 (°C). The inside diameter of the tube is 1 (in.). During the process, heat is transmitted at a rate of 9 (kJ/s). Calculate the power produced by the compressor, consider g = 9.81 (m/s^2 ).
