An ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle using refrigerant-134a as the working fluid is used to cool a brine solution to -5°C. This solution is pumped to various buildings for the purpose of air-conditioning. The refrigerant evaporates at -18°C with a total mass flow rate of 5 kg/s and condenses at 600 kPa. Determine the COP of the cycle and the total cooling load. (Take the required values from saturated refrigerant-134a tables.) The COP of the cycle is , and the total cooling load is kW.
The required refrigeration capacity of a vapor compression refrigeration system (with R-22 as refrigerant) is 100 kW at –30oC evaporator temperature. Initially the system was single-stage with a single compressor compressing the refrigerant vapor from evaporator to a condenser operating at 1500 kPa pressure. Later the system was modified to a two- stage system operating on the cycle shown below. At the intermediate pressure of 600 kPa there is intercooling but no removal of flash gas. Find: a) Power requirement of the original single-stage system; b) Total power requirement of the two compressors in the revised two-stage system.

A two-stage compression refrigeration system operates with refrigerant-134a betweenthe pressure limits of 1.4 and 0.10 MPa. The refrigerant leaves the condenser as asaturated liquid and is throttled to a flash chamber operating at 0.6 MPa. Therefrigerant leaving the low-pressure compressor at 0.4 MPa is also routed to the flashchamber. The vapour in the flash chamber is then compressed to the condenserpressure by the high-pressure compressor, and the liquid is throttled to the evaporatorpressure. Assuming the refrigerant leaves the evaporator as saturated vapour andboth compressors are isentropic,Determine:4.1 The fraction of the refrigerant that evaporates as it is throttled to the flashchamber4.2 The rate of heat removed from the refrigerated space for a mass flow rate of0.25 kg/s through the condenser, and4.3 The coefficient of performance.
