In a 15 TR ammonia plant, compression is carried out in two stages with water
and flash intercooling and water subcooling. The condenser pressure, evaporator
pressure and flash intercooler pressure are 12 bar, 3 bar and 6 bar respectively.
The limiting temperature for intercooling and subcooling is 200C. Draw the cycle
on p-h chart and estimate:
1) the C.O.P. of the plant,
2) the power required for each compressor, and
3) the swept volume for the compressor if the volumetric efficiency of both the
compressors is 82%.
