A vapor-compression refrigeration system operates on a cycle with evaporation temperature of 0°C and a condensation temperature of 26 °C. The refrigerant used is tetrafluoroethane (Table 9.1, Fig. F.2). The compressor efficiency is 0.79 and the rate of refrigeration is 600 kW. Determine the circulation rate of the refrigerant, the heat- transfer rate in the condenser, the power requirement, the coefficient of performance of the cycle, and the coefficient of performance of a Carnot refrigeration cycle operating between the same temperature levels.
In a vapour compression refrigeration cycle, the refrigerant enters the compressor in saturated vapour state at evaporator pressure, with specific enthalpy equal to 250 kJ/kg. The exit of the compressor is superheated at condenser pressure with specific enthalpy equal to 300 kJ/kg. At the condenser exit, the refrigerant is throttled to the evaporator pressure. The coefficient of performance (COP) of the cycle is 3. If the specific enthalpy of the saturated liquid at evaporator pressure is 50 kJ/kg, then the dryness fraction of the refrigerant at entry to evaporator is
