Answer:
a) 4.1 kw
b) 4.68 tons
c) 4.02
Explanation:
Saturated vapor enters compressor at ( p1 ) = 2.6 bar
Saturated liquid exits the condenser at ( p2 ) = 12 bar
Isentropic compressor efficiency = 80%
Mass flow rate = 7 kg/min
A) Determine compressor power in KW
compressor power = m ( h2 - h1 )
= 7 / 60 ( 283.71 - 248.545 )
= 4.1 kw
B) Determine refrigeration capacity in tons = m ( h1 - h4 )
= 7/60 ( 248.545 - 107.34 )
= 16.47 kw = 4.68 tons
C) coefficient of performance ( COP )
= Refrigeration capacity / compressor power
= 16.47 / 4.1 = 4.02
