Consider a two-stage cascade refrigeration system operating between the pressure limits of 1.4 MPa and 280 kPa using refrigerant-134a as the working fluid. The heat rejection from the lower cycle to the upper cycle occurs in an adiabatic counterflow heat exchanger where the pressures in the upper and lower cycles are 0.5 MPa and 600 kPa, respectively. In both cycles, the refrigerant exits the condenser as a saturated liquid and enters the compressor as a saturated vapor. The isentropic efficiency of the compressors is 85 percent. Given the mass flow rate of the refrigerant through the lower cycle is 0.18 kg/s, calculate: (a) The mass flow rate of the refrigerant through the upper cycle. (b) The rate of heat extraction from the cooling area. (c) The Coefficient of Performance (COP) of this refrigeration system.

ai 10roh Consider a two-stage cascade refrigeration system operating between the pressure limits of 1.2 MPa and 200 kPa with refrigerant-134a as the working fluid. The refrigerant leaves the condenser as a saturated liquid and is throttled to a flash chamber operating at 0.32 MPa. Part of the refrigerant evaporates during this flashing process, and this vapor is mixed with the refrigerant leaving the low-pressure compressor. The mixture is then compressed to the condenser pressure by the high-pressure compressor. The liquid in the flash chamber is throttled to the evaporator pressure and cools the refrigerated space as it vaporizes in the evaporator. The mass flow rate of the refrigerant through the low-pressure compressor is 0.11 kg/s.
