Pressure used to be measured in units of 'inches of mercury' (in. Hg). The pressure was the hydrostatic pressure due to the number of inches of mercury. Atmospheric pressure is 2,116 psf and the specific gravity of mercury is 13.6. What is this pressure expressed in inches of mercury?

Refrigerant 134a enters an insulated compressor operating at steady state as saturated vapor at -26°c with a volumetric flow rate of 0.18 m3/s. refrigerant exits at 9 bar, 70°c. changes in kinetic and potential energy from inlet to exit can be ignored. determine the volumetric flow rate at the exit, in m3/s, and the compressor power, in kw.
