Problem Statement A vapour compression refrigeration system operates between 12 bar and 1.4 bar. The com- pressor inlet is superheated by 4K. The mass flow rate of the refrigerant (R131a) is 0.5 kg/s and the refrigeration effect is 65 kW. If the condenser inlet is at 70°C, determine the coeffi- cient of performance of the system and the isentropic efficiency of the compressor. Answer Table Value Description Coefficient of performance Compressor isentropic efficiency (%)
Condenser Compressor An ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle is modified to include a counter-flow heat exchanger as shown. Refrigerant 134a leaves the evaporator as saturated vapor at 0.10 MPa and is heated at constant pressure to 20°C before entering the compressor. Following isentropic compression to 1.4 MPa, the refrigerant passes through the condenser and exits at 45°C and 1.4 MPa. The liquid then passes through the heat exchanger and enters the expansion valve at 1.4 MPa. The mass flow rate of...
EXAMPLE 6 A household refrigeration system works with a vapor compression refrigeration system with two evaporators using Refrigerant 134a as the working fluid. This arrangement is used to achieve refrigeration at two different temperatures with a single compressor and a single condenser. The low temperature evaporator operates at -18°C with saturated vapor at its exit and has a refrigerating capacity of 10.5 kW (3 tons). The higher- temperature evaporator produces saturated vapor at 3.2 bar at its exit and has...

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...
Please also draw the T-S diagrams and PH diagrams to facilitate understanding. Thank you. 5. The refrigeration system shown below is another variation of the basic vapor compression refrigeration system which attempts to reduce the compression work. In this system, a heat exchanger is used to superheat the vapor entering the compressor while sub-cooling the liquid exiting from the condenser Consider a system of this type that uses refrigerant-134a as its refrigerant and operates the evaporator at -10°C, and the...
