7- Steam enters the condenser at 35°C. The condenser vacuum is 70 cm of mercury when the
barometer reads 75.5 cm of Hg. Determine the vacuum efficiency. Estimate the mass of air
present in the condenser per kg of steam.
In a refrigerator the pressure in the evaporator us 2.72 kg/cm sq. and the refrigerant entry is 0.12 dry while at the exit 0.91 dry. During the compression, the work done per kg is 17,033 kg-m/kg. Calculate the COP. The rate of refrigerant circulation is 5.64 kg/min. The given latent heat and specific volume at 2.72 kg/cm sq are 320 kcal/kg ang 0.436 cu m/kg.
