The mass flow rate of R-134a in a vapor-compression refrigeration cycle is 6 kg/min
The mass flow rate of R-134a in a vapor-compression refrigeration cycle is 6 kg/min. At the inlet of the compressor, R-134a is at -10°C, 150 kPa. The pressure at the compressor exit is 600 kPa. The compressor has an isentropic efficiency of 67%. The refrigerant leaves the condenser at 20°C. Neglect any pressure drops in the condenser, the evaporator, and pipes. Assume an adiabatic compressor.
(a)draw the cycle and the T-s diagram of the cycle. Also find:
(b)the coefficient of the performance of the refrigerator,
(c) the refrigeration capacity, and
(d)the rate of exergy destruction in the compressor if T0 = 20°C.

2. (10 points) An ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle is modified to include a counter- flow heat exchanger, as shown below. Ammonia leaves the evaporator as saturated vapor at 1.0 bar and is heated at constant pressure to 5 "C before entering the compressor. Following isentropic compression to 18 bar, the refrigerant passes through the condenser, exiting at 40 C, 18 bar. The liquid then passes through the heat exchanger, entering the expansion valve at 18 bar. If the mass flow...
