A vapor-compression refrigeration system operates on a cycle with evaporation temperature of 0°C and a condensation temperature of 26 °C. The refrigerant used is tetrafluoroethane (Table 9.1, Fig. F.2). The compressor efficiency is 0.79 and the rate of refrigeration is 600 kW. Determine the circulation rate of the refrigerant, the heat- transfer rate in the condenser, the power requirement, the coefficient of performance of the cycle, and the coefficient of performance of a Carnot refrigeration cycle operating between the same temperature levels.
