![The figure shows a two-stage, vapor-compression refrigeration system with two evaporators and a direct contact heat exchanger.
Saturated vapor ammonia from evaporator 1 enters compressor 1 at 12 Ibf/in? and exits the compressor at 66 lbf/in?. Evaporator 2
operates at 66 Ibf/in?, with saturated vapor exiting at state 8. The condenser pressure is 200 lbf/in², and saturated liquid refrigerant
exits the condenser. Each compressor stage has an isentropic efficiency of 80%. The refrigeration capacity of each evaporator is shown
on the figure.
