Q1:- Multi-evaporator system with single compressor and individual

expansion valves system used refrigerant 143a at two different

temperatures with a single compressor and a single condenser. The low-
temperature evaporator operates at -20 oC with saturated vapor at its exit
and has a refrigerating capacity of 4 tons. The higher-temperature
evaporator produces saturated vapor at 3 bar at its exit and has a
refrigerating capacity of 2.5 tons. The compression with isentropic
efficiency 85% to the condenser pressure of 10 bar. There are no
significant pressure drops in the flows through the condenser and the two
evaporators, and the refrigerant leaves the condenser as saturated liquid at
10 bar.
Draw the schematic diagram of the cycle and p-h diagram then calculate:
1) The mass flow rate of refrigerant through each evaporator.
2) The compressor power input, in kW.
3) The C.O.P.
4) The rate of heat transfer from the refrigerant passing through the
condenser, in kW.
5) Volumetric displacement of the compressor cylinder if the clearance
ratio is 5% and k=1.13.

Q2:- Two-stage system with flash gas removal and intercooling water
uses refrigerant R-22. The evaporating temperature is -25 oC and
condensing temperature 45 oC. The refrigeration capacity is 10 TR and
the compression is adiabatic reversible process. The refrigerant leaves the
water intercooler at 14 oC.
1) Estimate the refrigerant mass flow rate.
2) Work done of each compressor.
3) Condenser heat reject.
4) Coefficient of performance.
5) The amount of additional vapour generated due to de-superheating
of the refrigerant vapour from the water-cooled intercooler.
6) The overall heat transfer coefficient of the condenser is 450
W/m2.oC and a heat transfer area of 20 m2. If cooling water at a flow
rate of 3kg/s enters the condenser at a temperature of 30 oC, what is
the log mean temperature difference?
Take the specific heat of water as 4.18kJ/kg.C.
