An ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle operates at


1. An ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle operates at steady state with Refrigerant 134a as the working fluid. Saturated vapor enters the compressor at 2 bar, and saturated liquid exits the condenser at 8 bar. The mass flow rate of refrigerant is 7 kg/min. Determine

(a) the compressor power, in kW.

(b) the refrigerating capacity, in tons.

(c) the coefficient of performance.

2. Plot each of the quantities in Problem versus evaporator temperature for evaporator pressures ranging from 0.6 to 4 bar, while the condenser pressure remains fixed at 8 bar.
