Question
I only need help with letters (b) and (c).
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.

- Refrigerant 22 is the working fluid in a Carnot refrigeration cycle operating at steady state. The refrigerant enters the condenser as saturated vapor at 36°C and exits as saturated liquid. The evaporator operates at -30°C. Determine, in kJ per kg of refrigerant flowing, the work input to the compressor. 46.58 21.06 40.34 32.10 B Darrow_forwardIdeal 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?arrow_forward13. A plant using R-134a is used to chill water for warship systems. The condenser is also cooled by water. Assume no undercooling in the condenser.
