PROBLEMS
(1) An ammonia vapor refrigeration cycle operates at an
evaporator temperature of -16°C and a condensing temperature
of 32°C. Determine the coefficient of performance (a) for an ideal
saturation cycle, (b) for wet compression with saturated vapor
leaving the compressor, and (c) if the vapor at suction to the
compressor is superheated 6 degrees.
Ans. (a) 4.50, (b) 4.70, (c) 4.28
(2) A standard vapor compression system produces 20 tons
of refrigeration using R-12 as a refrigerant while operating
between a condenser temperature of 41.6 C and an evaporator
temperature of -25°C. Determine (a) the refrigerating effect in
kJ/kg, (b) the circulating rate in kg/s, (c) the power supplied,
(d) the COP, (e) the heat rejected in kW, and (f) the volume flow
rate in L/s.
Ans. (a) 100.26 kJ/kg, (b) 0.7022 kg/s, (c) 25.69 kW,
(d) 2.74, (e) 96.09 kW, (f) 92.18 L/s
