An air conditioning system is operating in an ambient of 45°C. The room temperature is maintained at 25°C. Determine the power consumption of the system per ton of refrigeration if it is, (a) air-cooled as in a window-type air conditioner; (b) water-cooled as in a central air conditioning plant. The cooling water from cooling tower is available at 30°C. Assume suitable operating temperatures. Actual COP of the system is only 50% of the COP of the reversible cycle.

a student, observed that she can focus more in her lessons if the air conditioning unit in her spacious room is opened. She usually set the temperature to be maintained in her room at 10 C. The temperature outside of her room is 40 C. The refrigerant of her AC unit is HFC-134 a. What is the coefficient of performance of her AC unit if it is operating on a Vapor Compression refrigeration cycle? The compressor efficiency is 0.7.
Required information Refrigerant-134a enters the condenser of a steady-flow Carnot refrigerator as a saturated vapor at 65.0 psia, and it leaves with a quality of 0.05. The heat absorption from the refrigerated space takes place at a pressure of 30 psia. Determine the coefficient of performance. (Round the final answer to three decimal places.) The coefficient of performance is
