Question
A refrigeration system is being designed to maintain a small frozen storage room at -5°C. The required
cooling rate is 50 kW. Waste heat from the refrigeration system will be rejected to the outdoor air at
35°C. The system will be designed such that the evaporation temperature will be either -10°C or -20°C,
and the condensing temperature will be either 40°C or 50°C.
