Question
Chapter 10.7, Problem 1E
To determine
The refrigeration application that uses steam as a refrigerant.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
The steam refrigeration system is widely used in industries such as food processing plant, breweries, paper and pulp industries and edible oil refineries. It is also used for the jet refrigeration system.
For Example:
In a steam jet refrigeration system, the steam is allowed to pass through the high-efficiency vacuum ejector which creates a partial vacuum in the vessel. The ejector is connected to the cooling circuit. Low-pressure cooling circuit evaporates water and provides the suitable cooling temperature.

- The machine below forms metal plates through the application of force. Two toggles (ABC and DEF) transfer forces from the central hydraulic cylinder (H) to the plates that will be formed. The toggles then push bar G to the right, which then presses a plate (p) into the cavity, thus shaping it. In this case, the plate becomes a section of a sphere. If the hydraulic cylinder can produce a maximum force of F = 10 kN, then what is the maximum P value (i.e. Pmax) that can be applied to the plate when θ = 35°? Also, what are the compressive forces in the toggle rods in that situation?
