Refrigeration
Example-1
Two stage compression system with water intercooler
uses R-134a as shown in Figure-1. The evaporating
temperature is -25 oC and condensing temperature 47
oC. The refrigeration capacity is 8 TR and the
compression is adiabatic reversible process. The
refrigerant leaves the water intercooler at 14 oC.
Estimate the refrigerant mass flow rate, work done of
each compressor, condenser heat load, and coefficient of
performance. Also re-estimate the requirements if the
compression is one stage.
