2. A compound compression refrigerating system using R-12 as a refrigerant consists of two evaporators of capacities 30 TR at -10°C and 10 TR at 10°C. The vapours leaving the evaporators are dry and saturated. The system is provided with multiple expansion valves and flash intercooler. The condenser temperature is 40°C and the liquid refrigerant leaving the condenser is sub cooled to 30°C. Assuming isentropic compression at each stage. Show the cycle on a p-h diagram and find: (a) the mass of refrigerant passing through each compressor. (b) the power required to drive the system in kW. (c ) the heat rejected in the condenser in kW. (d) the COP of the system.

2. A compound compression refrigerating system using R-12 as a refrigerant consists of two
evaporators of capacities 30 TR at -10°C and 10 TR at 10°C. The vapours leaving the
evaporators are dry and saturated. The system is provided with multiple expansion valves
and flash intercooler. The condenser temperature is 40°C and the liquid refrigerant leaving
the condenser is sub cooled to 30°C. Assuming isentropic compression at each stage. Show
the cycle on a p-h diagram and find:
(a) the mass of refrigerant passing through each compressor.
(b) the power required to drive the system in kW.
(c ) the heat rejected in the condenser in kW.
(d) the COP of the system.
