(5) Asingle-acting, twin-cylinder 15.25 x 15.25-cm. compressor receives saturated ammonia vapor at -18°C and discharges it at 1514.3 kPa. The system is used to produce ice at a final temperature of-10°C from water at 27°C. The compressor runs at 450 an actual volumetric efficiency of 78%. Assume compression and mechanical efficiencies to be 82% and 88%, respectively. Calculate the following: (a) capacity of the system in tons of refrigeration, (b) brake hp required by the compressor, (c) tons of ice produced per day if compressor runs only 20 hours a day. Assume losses to be 10% of the refrigeration required to produce the ice, and (d) ideal and actual COP. rpm with
