Question
I couldn't upload P-h Diagram for R170 (Ethane) due to upload image limit.
Please find it on google. I really need help on this

Transcribed Image Text:The cold storage room is maintained at T; = -70 °C by two stage vapor-compression refrigeration unit. In the
low temperature cycle, R170 (ethane) is used as the working fluid. In the high temperature cycle, R134a is used
as the working fluid. After selecting reasonable pressures for all heat exchangers, calculate evaporator
capacity, COP of the system, and compressor powers. Show refrigeration cycles on P-h diagrams i
Draw the T-s diagrams of R134a and R170 cycles as well. Draw schematic
of refrigeration system with its components.

Notes
1) Isentropic efficiency of compressors are 0.75.
2) Refrigerants leave the condensers as saturated liquid and exit from the evaporators as saturated vapor.
3) When determining the cooling requirement, only the wall conduction load will be taken into account.
(consider 5 walls, neglect heat loss through the floor)
4) The inner and outer walls are normally covered with steel sheets, but their conduction resistance can be
neglected due to high heat conductivity constant k of steel.
See the Lecture Note titled “Refrigeration" regarding two stage vapor-compression refrigeration cycles.
