1 The refrigeration capacity of the cold room you are considering is 10 kW. It operates for 24 h/d, 360 days of the year. The average temperature outside the cold room is 30°C and the temperature of the air inside the cold room should be 5°C. What is the maximum coefficient of performance for this refrigeration cycle? What is the minimum work required? and If the price of electricity is 0.008 cents per kJ, what is the minimum cost of electricity to run the cold room for 1 year?

In a refrigeration cycle, the refrigerant gains heat in the evaporator and in thesuction line. In a certain refrigeration system, R-134a gains 67.8 Britishthermal units per pound (Btu/lb) in the evaporator. It then gains 2.5 Btu/lb inthe suction line. Find in Btu/lb the total heat gained by the R-134a.
