In NH3-water absorption system the heat is supplied to generator by condensing stream at 0.2 MPa. The initial state of the stream is at a dryness fraction of 0.9 and the final state of stream after condensing is saturated liquid. This temperature to be maintained in refrigerator is -10°C and surrounding temperature is 30°C. If relative efficiency is 0.4 and refrigeration load is 20 TR. The steam flow rate is kg/s. [Given: At 0.2 MPa, Tsat = 120°C and hfg=2201.9 kJ/kg]
