The events of a cascade, split –stage, low temperature refrigerating cycle are as follows. A Freon 12 vapor compression system operates between 0 F and 100 F with saturated liquid on the high side of the expansion valve and saturated vapour entering the compressor whose volumetric efficiency is 90 %. An ammonia compression system operates between -60 F and 12 F with saturated liquid entering the expansion valve and saturated vapour entering the compressor whose volumetric efficiency is 88 %. The Freon 12 evaporator serves as the condenser for the ammonia for the ideal cycle and 2 tons of refrigeration . Find;  a) The displacement of each compressor b) The total horsepower required for compressor efficiency of 80 %
