The figure below shows a two-stage vapor-compression refrigeration system with ammonia as the working fluid. The system uses a direct-contact heat exchanger to achieve intercooling. The evaporator has a refrigerating capacity of 40 tons and produces -30°F saturated vapor at its exit.

Consider an ice-producing plant that operates on the ideal vapor compression refrigeration cycle and uses refrigerant-134a as the working fluid. The refrigeration cycle operating conditions require an evaporator pressure of 180 kPa and the condenser pressure of 1400 kPa. Cooling water flows through the water jacket surrounding the condenser and is supplied at the rate of 250 kg/s. The cooling water has a 10°C temperature rise as it flows through the water jacket.

The evaporator utilizes a mechanical refrigeration cycle using ammonia as a refrigerant for heating and for condensing the vapors. The refrige-ration cycle is operated at a high-side pressure of 200 psia (1.379 MPa) and a low-side pressure of 50 psia (344.7 kPa).
