‘Mech 204 Thermodynamics Spring 2013 aW1L 1. Problem 11.13 in the book) A reftigerator uses refrigerant R-134a as the working ‘uid and operates on an ideal vapor-compression seffigeration cycle between 0.12 and 0.7 MPa. The mass flow rate ofthe retrigerant is 0.05 ke’s. Show the cycle on a T-s diagram with respect to the saturation lines. Determine (a) the rate of heat removal ‘from the refiigerated space and power input to the compressor, (b) the rate of heat rejection fo the environment, and (¢) the COP.
