Question

Refrigerant 22 enters the compressor of an air-conditioning unit operating at steady state at 4°C, 5.5 bar and is compressed to 60°C, 14 bar. The refrigerant exiting the com- pressor enters a condenser where energy transfer to air as a separate stream occurs and the refrigerant exits as a liquid at 14 bar, 32°C. Air enters the condenser at 27°C, 1 bar with a volumetric flow rate of 20.25 mº/min and exits at 43°C. Neglecting stray heat transfer and kinetic and potential energy effects, and assuming ideal gas behavior for the air, determine
(a) the mass flow rate of refrigerant, in kg/min, and
(b) the compressor power, in kilowatt.
