Question

The large insulated flash chamber of a vacuum refrigeration plant is kept at low temperature
by a steam jet which pumps vapor to a condenser . The condensate pump removes the
condensate formed and an air ejector discharges air from the condenser to an air vent .
Warm water returns enters the flash chamber at 13 deg C ; chilled water leaves the flash
chamber at 4 deg C . The vapor leaving the flash chamber has a dryness factor of 97% and
the condenser inside temperature is 32 deg C . For 100 tons of refrigeration , determine the
quantity in cubic meter per minute of chilled water at 4 deg C that the system can provide .
A) 0.45

B) 0.56

C) 9.33
