What would be the necessary bore and stroke of a single acting four- cylinder, 350 rpm ammonia compressor working on simple saturation cycle between 35°C condenser and –15°C evaporator temperatures and developing 15 tons refrigeration. Given for the compressor: Ratio of stroke to bore = 1 Volumetric efficiency = 0.7

Question
(a) What would be the necessary bore and stroke of a single acting four-
cylinder, 350 rpm ammonia compressor working on simple saturation
cycle between 35°C condenser and -15°C evaporator temperatures and
developing 15 tons refrigeration. Given for the compressor:
Ratio of stroke to bore = 1
Volumetric efficiency = 0.7
(b) If the index of compression is 1.15, find the error introduced in calculat-
ing the work of compression by assuming the process to be isentropic.
Also, find the heat rejected to the compressor-jacket cooling water.
