Question

A 105 x 205 mm reciprocating R134a compressor operates with a suction pressure of 0.2928 MPa and a condenser
pressure of 1.2 MPa. The cycle frequency is 23 cps. The evaporator load is 12.8 tons. The mechanical efficiency of
compressor is 75%. The clearance volume of compressor is 5% 

(a) Draw the ph Diagram and Refrigeration System Diagram
(b) enthalpy and temperature of superheated vapor (show interpolation)
(c) mass of flash vapor entering evaporator, kg vapor/kg refrigerant
(d) mass of refrigerant recirculated, kg/s
(e) condenser load, kW
(f) volume capacity of isentropic compressor at suction, L/s
(g) volume displacement of compressor, L/s
(h) actual volumetric efficiency, %
(i) clearance volumetric efficiency
(j) power requirement of isentropic compressor, kW
(k) coefficient of performance
(l) brake power output of electric motor, kW to drive isentropic compressor
