A Carnot vapor refrigeration cycle uses R-134a as the working fluid. The refrigerarit enters the condenser as saturated vapor at 28°C and leaves as saturated liquid. The evaporator operates at a temperature of -10°C. For every kg of refrigerant flow, calculate the work of compression, kJ
NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part. A commercial refrigerator with refrigerant-134a as the working fluid is used to keep the refrigerated space at -30°C by rejecting its waste heat to cooling water that enters the condenser at 18°C at a rate of 0.28 kg/s and leaves at 26°C. The refrigerant enters the condenser at 1.2 MPa and 65°C and leaves at 42°C. The inlet state of the compressor is 60 kPa and -34°C and the compressor is estimated to gain a net heat of 420 W from the surroundings.

A two-evaporatoor compression refrigeration system like that in the Figure below uses refrigerant-134a as the working fluid. The system operates evaporator 1 at 30 psia, evaporator 2 at 10 psia, and the condeser at 180 psia. The cooling load for evaporator 1 is 9000 Btu/h and that for evaporator 2 is 24,000 Btu/h.

ai 10roh Consider a two-stage cascade refrigeration system operating between the pressure limits of 1.2 MPa and 200 kPa with refrigerant-134a as the working fluid. The refrigerant leaves the condenser as a saturated liquid and is throttled to a flash chamber operating at 0.32 MPa. Part of the refrigerant evaporates during this flashing process, and this vapor is mixed with the refrigerant leaving the low-pressure compressor. The mixture is then compressed to the condenser pressure by the high-pressure compressor. The liquid in the flash chamber is throttled to the evaporator pressure and cools the refrigerated space as it vaporizes in the evaporator. The mass flow rate of the refrigerant through the low-pressure compressor is 0.11 kg/s. Assuming the refrigerant leaves the evaporator as a saturated vapor and the isentropic efficiency is 85 percent for both compressors, determine (a) the mass flow rate of the refrigerant through the high-pressure compressor, (b) the rate of heat removal…
