A window-mounted air conditioner supplies 19 m3/min of air at 15°C, 1 bar to a room. Air returns from the room to the evaporator of the unit at 22°C. The air conditioner operates at steady state on a vapor-compression refrigeration cycle with Refrigerant 22 entering the compressor at 4 bar, 10°C. Saturated liquid refrigerant at 14 bar leaves the condenser. The compressor has an isentropic efficiency of 70%, and refrigerant exits the compressor at 14 bar. Determine: (a) the compressor power, in kW. (b) the refrigeration capacity, in tons. (c) the coefficient of performance.

Ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle functions at steady state. Working fluid is Refrigerant 134a. Saturated vapor enters compressor at 1.70 bar. Saturated liquid leaves condenser at 7 bar. Refrigerant has mass flow rate = 7.9 kg/min DETERMINE: 1. What is power of compressor in Watt? 2. What is coefficient of performance? 3. What is refrigerating capacity in tons?

In a vapor-compression refrigeration cycle, 9 kg/min of ammonia exits the evaporator as saturated vapor at-12°C. The refrigerant enters the condenser at 16 bar and 140C, and saturated liquid exits at 16 bar. There is no significant heat transfer between the compressor and its surroundings, and the refrigerant passes through the evaporator with a negligible change in pressure. Determine the refrigerating capacity, in kW. kW %3D Determine the power input to the compressor, in kW. kW %3D

An ammonia-water absorption refrigeration cycle is used to keep a space at -5 C when the ambient temperature is 20 C. Pure ammonia enters the condenser at 20 bar and 60 C at a rate of 0.02 kg/s. Ammonia leaves the condenser as a saturated liquid and is expanded to 2 bar. Ammonia leaves the evaporator as a saturated vapor. Heat is supplied to the generator by geothermal liquid water that enters at 100 C at a rate of 0.25 kg/s and leaves at 70 C.  Determine (a) the cooling capacity (in TR) and (b) COP of the system. The enthalpies of ammonia at various states of the system are: condenser inlet h2 = 1510 kJ/kg, evaporator inlet h4 = 418 kJ/kg, evaporator exit h1 = 1420 kJ/kg. Take the specific heat of geothermal water to be 4.18 kJ/kg-K
