6-108 An air-conditioner with refrigerant-134a as the working fluid is used to keep a room at 23C by rojece ing the waste heat to the outdoor air at 34'C. The room gains heat through the walls and the windows at a rate of 250 J/min while the heat generated by the computer, TV, and lights amounts to 900 W. The reſngcrant enters the com- pressor at 400 kPa as a saluralod vapor at a rate of 80 L/min and leaves...
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...
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...

The refrigerant enters the evaporator at 20°C with a quality 23 percent and leaves at the inlet pressure as saturated vapor. The refrigerant loses305 W o heat to the surroundings as it flows through the compressor and the refrigerant leaves the...
5. A commercial refrigerator uses 134a refrigerant to keep the space refrigerated at −30 ° C by rejecting its waste heat into cooling water entering the condenser at 101,325 kPa, at the rate of 0.25 kg / s. The refrigerant is fed to the compressor at -25 ° C and 100 kPa. Use a software and determine the quality of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator and the COP of the refrigerator using the conditions shown in the...
(12 points) A refrigerator using refrigerant-134a as the working fluid operates on the vapor compression cycle. The cycle operates between 200 kPa and 1.2 MPa. The refrigerant flows through the cycle at a rate of 0.019 kg/s. The (actual) refrigerator has a compressor with an isentropic efficiency of 85%. The refrigerant enters the compressor slightly superheated by 56 C hint add this to the saturation temperature). The refrigerant leaves the condenser slightly subcooled by 1.9°C. What is the rate of...
Tt (12 points) A refrigerator using refrigerant-134a as the working fluid operates on the vapor compression cycle. The cycle operates between 200 kPa and 1.2 MPa. The refrigerant flows through the cycle at a rate of 0.015 kg/s. The actual) refrigerator has a compressor with an isentropic efficiency of 82%. The refrigerant enters the compressor slightly superheated by 6.2°C (hint: add this to the saturation temperature). The refrigerant leaves the condenser slightly subcooled by 1.8°C. What is the rate of...
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...
A two-stage compression refrigeration system with an adiabatic liquid-vapor separation unit uses refrigerant-134a as working fluid. The system operates the evaporator at 0.4 MPa, the condenser at 1.6 MPa, and the separator at 0.8 MPa. The compressors use 25 kW of power. Given that the refrigerant is saturated liquid at the inlet of each expansion valve and saturated vapor at the inlet of each compressor, and the compressors are isentropic: (0) show the process on a T-s diagram; ) calculate...
