Question

The values of a vapor compression refrigeration cycle were given below. Calculate the values of
refrigerant flow rate, refrigeration capacity, and the COP of the system.
T1= Evaporator water outlet = 10 °C
T2= Evaporator water inlet = 16 °C
T3= Condenser water inlet = 16 °C
T4= Condenser water outlet = 22°C
Cooling water flow rate = 1.5 L/min
Heating water flow rate = 1.5 L/min
Enthalpy of R134a in evaporator outlet = 305 kj/kg,
Enthalpy of R134a in evaporator inlet =115 kj/kg
Enthalpy of R134a in condenser inlet =327 kj/kg
