QUESTION 1 A heat pump with refrigerant-134a as the working fluid is used to keep a space at 25°C by absorbing heat from geothermal water that enters the evaporator at 50°C at a rate of 0.065 kg/s and leaves at 40°C. The refrigerant enters the evaporator at 20°C with a quality of 23 percent and leaves at the inlet pressure as saturated vapor. The refrigerant loses 300 W of heat to the surroundings as it flows through the compressor and...

1) A commercial refrigerator with refrigerant-134a as the working fluid is used to keep the refrigerated space at -30°C by rejecting its waste heat to cooling water that enters the condenser at 16 °C at a rate of 0.25 kg/s and leaves at 26°C. The refrigerant enters the condenser at 1.2 MPa and 65°C and leaves at 42°C. The inlet state of the compressor is 60 kPa and -34°C and the compressor is estimated to gain a net heat of...

In a vapor-compression refrigeration heat pump cycle with Refrigerant 134a as the working fluid provides heating at a rate of 15 kW to maintain a building at 20 °C year-round. During the heating mode in the winter, the outside temperature is 5 °C. It is also used for cooling in the summer when outside temperature is 34 °C. Saturated vapor at 2.4 bar leaves the evaporator and superheated vapor at 8 bar leaves the compressor. There is no significant heat...

An ideal vapor-compression refrigerant cycle operates at steady state with Refrigerant 134a as the working fluid. Saturated vapor enters the compressor at -10°C, and saturated liquid leaves the condenser at 28°C. The mass flow rate of refrigerant is 5 kg/min. Determine (a) The compressor power, in kW (b) The refrigerating capacity, in tons. (c) The coefficient of performance. Sketch the system on a T-s diagram with full label. A vapor-compression heat pump with a heating capacity of 500 kJ/min is...
A commercial refrigerator with refrigerant-134a as the working fluid is used to keep the refrigerated space at −25°C by rejecting waste heat to cooling water that enters the condenser at 20°C at a rate of 0.25 kg/s and leaves at 26°C. The refrigerant enters the condenser at 1.2 MPa and 50°C and leaves at the same pressure subcooled by 5°C. If the compressor consumes 3.3 kW of power, determine (a) the mass flow rate of the refrigerant, (b) the refrigeration...
