QUES: what are the deviations of actual refrigerating cycle to simple
saturated cycle? ( 07 marks)
The main deviations between the theoretical cycle and actual cycle as follows: 1. The vapour refrigerant leaving the evaporator is in superheated state. 2. The compressor of refrigerant is neither isentropic nor polytropic. 3. The liquid refrigerant before entering the expansion valve is subcooled in the condenser. 4. The pressure drops in the evaporator and condenser.
QUES: prove that affect of subcooling increases the cop of a VCRS? (8 )
OR, Discuss the effect of subcooling on VCRS? Would you desire large subcooling and cooling.
In some ways, a subcooler behaves like a suction line HX. Desired
increase in capacity is achieved by means of subcooling the condenser liquid. Another advantage of subcooling is the removal of any residual liquid that leaves the evaporator and thus protect the compressor. It also reduce the tendency toward the formation of flash gas at the entrance of the capillary tube.
