An ammonia vapour-compression refrigerator operates between an evaporator pressure of 2.077 bar and a condenser pressure of 12.37 bar. The following cycles are to be compared; in each case there is noundercooling in the condenser, and isentropic compression may be assumed:(ii)the vapour has a dryness fraction of 0.9 at entry to the compressor;(iii) the vapour is dry saturated at entry to the compressor;the vapour has 5 K of superheat at entry to the compressor. In each case calculate the COPrer and the refrigerating effect per unit mass. What would be the COPrer ofa reversed Carnot cycle operating between the same saturation temperatures?

Question

An ammonia vapour-compression refrigerator operates between an evaporator pressure of 2.077 bar and a condenser pressure of 12.37 bar. The following cycles are to be compared; in each case there is no
undercooling in the condenser, and isentropic compression may be assumed:
(ii)
the vapour has a dryness fraction of 0.9 at entry to the compressor;
(iii) the vapour is dry saturated at entry to the compressor;
the vapour has 5 K of superheat at entry to the compressor. In each case calculate the COPrer and the refrigerating effect per unit mass. What would be the COPrer of
a reversed Carnot cycle operating between the same saturation temperatures?
