1. It is a component of a refrigeration system that has high thermal conductivity and interests with the refrigerant
2. The phase of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator in an ideal Vapor compression refrigeration cycle is?
3. It is the type of stroke in an otto cycle where the piston is being pushed downward
4. This is a type of compressor which uses the piston motion for compression
Answer -
1. Evaporater and Condenser have high thermal conductivity. Refrigerant absorbs heat from the refrigerated space in the evaporater so the thermal conductivity of the evaporater material should be high. Similarly, refrigerent rejects heat to the cold fluid. So it should have high thermal conductivity.
2. In ideal vapour compression system, the refrigerent at the entry of the evaporater is in wet state.
3. in the Expansion stroke, in the Otto cycle, the piston is piushed downwards. It is pushed due to the expansion of the burnt fuel.
4. Reciprocating compresser uses the piston motion for compression. Piston encloses the gas to be compressed and due to its reciprocating motion, compression process is completed.

Problem #1 [30 Points] Vapor Compression Refrigeration Cycle An ideal vapor compression refrigeration system cycle, with ammonia as the working fluid, has an evaporator temperature of -20°C and a condenser pressure of 12 bar. Saturated vapor enters the compressor, and saturated liquid exits the condenser. The mass flow rate of refrigerant is 3 kg/minute. Determine the coefficient of performance and the refrigerating capacity in tons. Given: Find: T-s Process Diagram: Schematic Assume:
An ideal vapor compression refrigeration cycle uses refrigerant 12 as a working fluid in an air conditioning system. The refrigerant enter the compressor as saturated vapor at 5oC and leaves the condenser as saturated liquid at 55oC. The mass flow rate of refrigerant is 0.7 kg/s. Heat is transferred from a reservoir at 15oC (the cool space) to the refrigerant in the evaporator and the heat rejected by the condenser is transferred to the environment which is at a temperature...
