Used to cool a residential building with a cooling load (278 tons of refrigeration from water-lithium bromide absorption chiller with recovery). If the evaporator temperature is 5°C, the condenser temperature is 45 °C, the generator temperature is 103°C , the absorber temperature is 35 °C and the heat exchanger efficiency is 100%, calculate the refrigeration effect, mass flow rate required and the system performance coefficient.
