The figure below shows a two-stage vapor-compression refrigeration system with ammonia as the working fluid. The system uses a direct-contact heat exchanger to achieve intercooling. The evaporator has a refrigerating capacity of 40 tons and produces -30°F saturated vapor at its exit. In the first compressor stage, the refrigerant is compressed adiabatically to 140 lbf/in.², which is the pressure in the direct contact heat exchanger. Saturated vapor at 140 lbf/in.² enters the second compressor stage and is compressed adiabatically to 250 lbf/in.² Each compressor stage has an isentropic efficiency of 85%.

Saturated liquid R134a leaves the condenser at State 1 with a mass flow rate of 0.05 kg/s and pressure of 900 kPa. This refrigerant enters the vapor separator (a large, insulated tank) through a valve. The pressure in the tank is 500 kPa. There is no pressure drop due to flow through the tank (i.e., the pressure at States 2, 3, and 5 are all the same). The flow at State 2 is two-phase. The liquid portion of this flow falls to the bottom of the tank due to gravity while the vapor portion remains at the top. The saturated liquid is drawn from the bottom of the tank (at State 3). The saturated vapor is drawn off of the top of the tank at State 5 and fed to a compressor. Assume that the vapor separator is adiabatic, rigid, and operating at steady state. a) The…
