The figure to the right gives the schematic of an air conditioner cycle that steadily circulates R134a through the four components shown. The R134a flows through the evaporator and condenser at constant pressure and through the compressor adiabatically and isentropically. Kinetic and potential energy effects can be ignored. Assume mass flow rate is 0.5 kg/s. Process data is as follows.
