A simple air refrigeration system is used for an aircraft to take a load of 20 TR. The ambient pressure and temperature are 0.9 bar and 22°C respectively. The pressure of air is increased to 1 bar due to isentropic ramming action. The air is further compressed in a compressor to 3.5 bar and then cooled in a heat exchanger to 72°C. Finally, the air is passed through the cooling turbine and then it is supplied to the cabin at a pressure of 1.03 bar. The air leaves the cabin at a temperature of 25°C. Assuming the isentropic efficiencies of the compressor and turbine as 80 per cent and 75 percent respectively, find: 1. Power required to take the load in the cooling cabin; and 2. C.O.P. of the system. Take c, 1.005 kJ/kg K; and gamma = 1.4
