Type: E 4. A reversed Brayton refrigeration cycle uses air as its working fluid in a closed loop. The air enters the compressor at 100 kPa and -10°C, and enters the turbine at 1000 kPa and 30°C. The mass flow rate of the air through the cycle is 1.5 kg/s. Determine the rate at which heat is removed from the cold space and the coefficient of performance of the cycle if (a) the turbine and compressor are isentropic and (b) the turbine and compressor both have isentropic efficiencies of 0.80. Assume that the specific heats of the air are constant.

4. A reversed Brayton refrigeration cycle uses air as its working fluid in a closed loop. The air enters the
compressor at 100 kPa and -10°C, and enters the turbine at 1000 kPa and 30°C. The mass flow rate of
the air through the cycle is 1.5 kg/s. Determine the rate at which heat is removed from the cold space
and the coefficient of performance of the cycle if (a) the turbine and compressor are isentropic and (b)
the turbine and compressor both have isentropic efficiencies of 0.80. Assume that the specific heats of
the air are constant.
