00 x 200 mm ammonia compressor with a compression efficiency of 82% operates with a suction pressure of 291.57 kPPa and a condenser pressure of 1203.7 kPa at 22 rps. The refrigerant cools 100 kg/min of water from 250C to 20C and assuming 5% of the useful refrigerating effect is lost due to the process of cooling, determine: a) RE in tons of refrigeration h2 = 1653 kJ/kg b) mass flow rate of ammonia c) actual work of compression kW
