Compressed-air power tools can dramatically decrease the amount of time spent on a project. Air tools such as brad nailers, reversible drills, and impact wrenches are more powerful than traditional electric tools, deliver higher torque and higher RPM to help get the job done quickly, and are versatile and easily interchangeable. The Alton 3.5 HP 4.5-Gallon Direct Drive Air Compressor AT012095 brings that power to both home workshops and job sites in a rugged and easily transportable wheeled frame.The Alton AT012095 uses a 3.5 HP oil-lubricated induction motor, direct drive, and an oil-lubricated reciprocating pump to build a working pressure of 95-125 PSI, filling its 4.5-gallon twin tank with compressed air at ratings of 6.0 CFM at 40 PSI and 4.5 CFM at 90 PSI. The sturdy sliding handle and 10-inch pneumatic wheels allow for quick moves between projects, and operation is monitored with two large oil-filled gauges.Key features include: reinforced frame with welded shelf for strength and durability; twin ports with quick couplers; easy to store; compact and powerful; CSA certified; and includes 1-year manufacturer's warranty. The Alton 3.5 HP 4.5-Gallon Direct Drive Air Compressor AT012095 brings the convenience and efficiency of compressed air tools to any project with ease.

How to find the ideal enthalpy (thermodynamics help)?

A compressor is used to bring saturated water vapor at 1 MPa up to 17.5 MPa at an exit temp of 650 deg C. find the isentropic compressor efficiency.
Heres what i know.
h1= 2778.1 s1=6.5864
actual : h2=3693.9 s2= 6.7403
now the the isentropic efficiency h2s=???

i tried the equation hs=u+Pv but it is not coming out right. How do i find this value for h2s?
sorry the problem is asking to find the isentropic efficiency n=ws/wact, but i need to find hes using the steam tables, not software because I cant use a computer during a test!

h2s IS NOT the "isentropic efficiency".

h2s is the ideal enthalpy at exit

Isentropic efficiency and ideal enthalpy at exit ARE NOT the same concept.

There is no direct way of getting these properties without looking them up in steam tables. Plus, there is SOFTWARE that does it for you.

Get the software Engineering Equation Solver. Execute the below code:

"!-----Begin EES-------"
"Data"
P[1] = 1000 [kPa]
P[2] = 17500 [kPa]
T[2] = 650 [C]
x[1] = 1

"Strategy"
"Look up trivially all properties of both states"
h[1] = enthalpy(Steam, P=P[1], x=x[1])
s[1] = entropy(Steam, P=P[1], x=x[1])
h[2] = enthalpy(Steam, P=P[2], T=T[2])
s[2] = entropy(Steam, P=P[2], T=T[2])

"Now, imagine that entropy were not generated in the compressor. WHAT would need to be the exit enthalpy to still have the same pressure as P[2], but have the same entropy as s[1]? Call that h2s:"
h2s = enthalpy(Steam, P=P[2], s=s[1])

"Now crunch the definition of isentropic efficiency.
Don't memorize the formula, memorize the motto:

For a compressor:
eta_c = (what we could've put in)/(what we actually had to put in)
"
eta_c = (h2s - h[1])/(h[2] - h[1])

"!-----End EES-------"
