prip", pluce with

a' A two stage vapor compression

refrigeration system working on R 12 refrigerant is

of 0.r Mpa (rbar) and 1.0 Mpa (r0 bar). The refrigerant leaves the condensel as saturated liquid and is first throttled to a flash chamber operating at 0.32 Mpa. vapor from the flash chamber is mixed to the
refrigerant leaving the low pressure compressor. The mixture is than compressed to condenser pressure by High pressure compressor. The liquid in the flash chamber is throttled to the evaporator pressure and vaporizes in evaporator. Assuming refrigerant leaves the evaporator as a saturated vapor and bcth compression being isentropic calculate:

operating between pressure limits

1.

2. Refrigeration effect per kg of refrigerant. 3. COP of the system.

Mass fraction of vapor leaving the flash chamber.

Draw schernatic as well as p-h diagram for solving the problem, during labeling label suction point of row pressure compressor as l and proceed fuither.

b'

Explain explicitly the effect of followings on simple vapor compression system by using p-h diagrams. (diagrams must speak the effects)
1. the

effect ofrise and fall in suction pressure.

2. the effect of rise and fail in delivery pressure. 3. the effect of superheating.

4. the effect of sub cooling of liquid.

tower at a DBT of 26 C and relative humidity of 95o/o. What is the requiredflow rate

of air at the inlet to the cooling tower in m /s? What is the amount of make-up water
to be supplied? Thetemperature of make-up water is at 30oC, at which its enthalpy (h*)
may be taken as 125.4 kJ/kg. Assume the barometric pressure to be 1 atm.
