In an 18-tons absorption refrigeration system, the heating in the generator is carried out by using steam at 3 Bar and 85% dry. The refrigeration temperature is -10OC. The condensation of the refrigerant is carried out at 30 OC using cooling water. Determine: a) The maximum possible COP of the system and b) The quantity of steam required per hour to run the plant if the steam leaves the generator as saturated water at the same pressure. Assume actual COP to be 40% of the maximum COP.

Question

In an 18-tons absorption refrigeration system, the heating in the generator is

carried out by using steam at 3 Bar and 85% dry. The refrigeration temperature

is -10OC. The condensation of the refrigerant is carried out at 30

OC using

cooling water. Determine:

a) The maximum possible COP of the system and

b) The quantity of steam required per hour to run the plant if the steam leaves

the generator as saturated water at the same pressure. Assume actual COP

to be 40% of the maximum COP.
