At steady state, Refrigerant 22 enters (1) the compressor at 40C, 5.5bar and is compressed to 60C, 13.8bar. R-22 exiting (2) the compressor enters a heat exchanger where energy transfer to air as a separate stream occurs and the refrigerant exits (3) as a liquid at 13.5bar, 32C. Air enters (4) the condenser at 27C, 1.0bar with a volumetric flow rate of 21.2m3/min and exits (5) at 43C. Assuming ideal gas behavior for the air and stray heat transfer and kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible, determine the compressor power
