A vapor compression cycle with R-134a is being used as its refrigerant. The refrigerant leaves the evaporator at -10 C and 120 kPa and it enters the condenser 1.0 MPa. Assuming there is a heat loss due to compression which is equal to 20 kJ/kg, and it has a cooling capacity of 75 tons of refrigeration, Determine the following: (a)heat rejected (b)cooling effect (c)work of compression (d) coefficient of performance (e)volume flow rate of refrigerant (f)compressor discharge temperature
