Thermodynamics. No interpolation needed.
Problem #3. Refrigerant 134a is the working fluid for vapor-compression refrigeration cycle. The evaporator temperature is 8°C and the condenser pressure is 12 bar. Saturated vapor enters the compressor and superheated vapor enters the condenser at 60°C and exits the condenser as saturated liquid. For a refrigeration capacity of 8 tons or 2.816 x104 J/s determine the following: (1) The refrigerant mass flow rate in kg/s; (2) The compressor isentropic efficiency [Hint: Interpolation is required); (3)...
